Kesar Hernandez

I’m a therapist who specializes in supporting individuals and couples through some of life’s most overwhelming and tender seasons. Whether you’re navigating the emotional complexities of pregnancy or postpartum, struggling with intrusive thoughts or anxiety, feeling stuck in depression, or working to strengthen your relationship, you don’t have to do it alone.

I have a particular passion for perinatal mental health, helping clients adjust to identity changes, manage expectations, and process the emotional ups and downs that can come with trying to conceive, pregnancy, and early parenthood. I also work closely with individuals experiencing OCD, anxiety, and depression, providing tools to reduce distress and build a greater sense of control and confidence.

For couples, I offer a supportive space to improve communication, rebuild connection, and navigate conflict in a more productive and meaningful way.

My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward.

My style is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to guide and support you with evidence-based tools and compassionate insight.

I draw from approaches such as:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD
• Person-Centered Therapy
• Strength-Based and Solution-Focused approaches
• Gottman-informed or other couples therapy frameworks (if applicable)

Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you—balancing practical strategies with deeper emotional understanding.

In our work together, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can be honest and feel heard. We’ll explore what’s bringing you in, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop tools to help you feel more grounded and in control.

Whether your goal is symptom relief, stronger relationships, or a deeper understanding of yourself, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
