Great to meet you!

My name is Teresa Hernandez and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have 20+ years working with Mental Health and Substance Abuse challenges.

I love working with adults and youth ages 11-80. I have worked with many modalities such DBT, CBT, Anger Management, Crisis intervention, Suicide Prevention, and Substance Abuse. I've worked with clients from many walks of life and with varied needs.

I earned my Master's Degree in Social Work at the University of Wyoming. Wyoming is my home state. It is filled with wildlife and the worst snow you can image. I moved to Colorado in 2010 to continue my quest for helping others. Many years ago, someone helped me and I having been giving back for more than 20+ years. Together, we will develop a comprehensive plan so that you can get the tools you need to help you reach your goals. It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help and for that I appreciate you. Please contact me to see if we're a good fit.

My approach to therapy

My areas of expertise are in Behavior Modification, Depression, Anxiety, Psychosis, Risk Assessment, Anger, Trauma, and PTSD. I have worked inpatient, outpatient mental health, crisis assessment and intervention, Substance abuse outpatient and residential treatment, women's recovery, and men's inpatient.

What you can expect from me

My focus is to meet you where you are. Together we will develop goals to guide you to the best outcome.
