Shirley Hernandez

Telehealth therapy for adults located in New Jersey and New York. Welcome, I’m glad you’re here. Coping with the emotional effects of chronic health conditions, persistent pain, reproductive trauma, grief or loss, and prolonged stress can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from your body, or challenged by unexpected changes. This can also lead to complexities with work/family life, anxiety, depression, and patterns such as substance use as a way of coping. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field and have been providing therapy since 2016.

I support adults 18+ coping with the emotional impact of such conditions. My work is grounded in a trauma-informed and compassionate approach, and I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices to support your goals and your healing at your own pace. I also speak Spanish.

Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re returning, my hope is that you leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and more confident about the next steps in your treatment and healing. Feel free to reach out for a free consultation. It’s an opportunity to connect, ask questions, and see if working together feels right for you.
