Cynthia Hernandez

I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from California Baptist University and over a decade of experience in healthcare. My background includes emergency medicine, internal medicine, and mental health, which allows me to support individuals with both emotional and medical needs. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related conditions across the lifespan. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout your care.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and personalized. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and I work alongside you to develop a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, and comfort level. I provide comprehensive evaluations and medication management while emphasizing education, shared decision-making, and sustainable progress. My care is trauma-informed and holistic, focusing not only on symptom relief but also on building resilience, insight, and long-term emotional wellness.

During your first session, you can expect a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where we take the time to understand your story, concerns, and goals. We will discuss your mental health history, current challenges, and what you hope to gain from treatment. My priority is to help you feel comfortable, supported, and informed while we begin creating a plan tailored to your needs. This session is the first step in building a partnership focused on helping you find clarity, balance, and meaningful progress.
