Ana Hernandez

I'm Ana, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist passionate about helping adolescents and adults navigate the stress, expectations, and emotional weight of daily life. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create a space that feels safe, welcoming, and affirming—especially for those who often carry the emotional load for others.

I specialize in supporting first-generation students, BIPOC, and members of marginalized communities– especially Latinx clients and eldest daughters– who are ready to heal generational wounds, set boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic selves to reclaim their own voice and identity.

My approach is psychodynamic and strengths-based, grounded in unconditional positive regard and cultural humility. I believe in getting to the root of what’s showing up on the surface—exploring past experiences, thought patterns, and emotional responses—while also providing practical tools for navigating the present. I see therapy as a collaborative process, where your experiences are honored, and your growth is supported with warmth, honesty, and curiosity.

Clients often leave sessions feeling more grounded, seen, and in tune with themselves. You can expect to build insight, self-compassion, and confidence in setting boundaries, managing anxiety, and strengthening relationships. We'll work together to better understand your needs, break old patterns, and help you step into a version of yourself that feels authentic and empowered.
