Janette Hernandez

Janette Hernandez is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with eight years of clinical experience. She takes a person-centered approach and aims to make therapy a straightforward, respectful process. Janette listens first, then helps people figure out practical steps that fit their life. She practices in California and holds the LMFT credential, which stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

Janette uses a mix of therapy methods to address stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship problems. She often blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with attachment-focused work to help people notice patterns and try new ways of relating. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are introduced when helpful for emotion regulation and staying present.

Many people bring concerns such as anger, addictions, coping with life changes, intimacy struggles, body image, or family-of-origin issues. Janette meets each concern with practical tools and clear goals rather than jargon. She helps clients break big problems into manageable steps and builds on what already works for them.

Sessions focus on the client’s goals and everyday life. Conversations may include skill practice, planning for change, and examining how past relationships shape current reactions. Progress is reviewed together so goals can shift as needed.

Janette works in English and does not accept international clients. If you have questions about whether she is a match for your needs, the recommended first step is to complete the platform’s matching questionnaire and schedule a session to discuss goals.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Janette uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and connections. This approach helps when relationship patterns, abandonment concerns, or family-of-origin issues keep repeating in adult life.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger when practical steps and skill practice are needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janette works collaboratively to match methods to a client's goals and preferences. Together, they try techniques and adjust plans based on what helps in everyday life.

If you are considering online work, check the session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let a person use telephone or lower-bandwidth options if video is difficult. Confirm the exact session formats offered when you schedule so they match your needs and routine.
