Luis Fernandez

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma-focused therapy. I work primarily with adults, veterans, service members, and high-functioning professionals who are navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, burnout, and major life transitions.

My style is direct, grounded, and compassionate. I don’t believe in endless processing without movement — therapy with me is about clarity, momentum, and measurable growth.

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), CBT, ACT, and other evidence-based approaches. My work is especially focused on trauma, complex PTSD, moral injury, performance pressure, and identity shifts.

My approach is structured, collaborative, and results-driven.

I use EMDR as a core trauma-processing modality to help clients reprocess painful experiences that continue to affect their present life. EMDR allows the nervous system to resolve stuck material without retraumatization or endless retelling of the story.

Depending on your needs, I integrate:

• EMDR for trauma and adverse experiences
• CPT and CBT for belief restructuring
• ACT for values-based action
• Nervous system regulation skills for anxiety and stress

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. We define the target, build stability, process what’s stuck, and move you forward.

The first session is structured and intentional.

We’ll clarify:

• What’s bringing you in
• What feels stuck
• What you’ve already tried
• What a meaningful outcome would look like

If trauma is part of your story, we’ll discuss how EMDR works and whether it fits your goals. You’ll leave the first session with clarity — not confusion — about the path ahead.
