Yilian Herrera

Life can be a lot sometimes. Between work, relationships, family expectations, social pressures, and trying to figure out who you are and where you're headed, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Maybe you're constantly overthinking, struggling to set boundaries, feeling emotionally drained, or wondering why you feel stuck even when everything seems fine on the outside. You might be the person everyone counts on, but rarely give yourself the same care and attention.

I'm Yilian Herrera, a licensed mental health professional, and I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or pretending you have it all figured out. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, navigate life's challenges, build healthier patterns, and create meaningful changes that actually feel right for you.

I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, burnout, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy supporting people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in their own thoughts, or caught in the cycle of putting everyone else first.

You don't have to wait until you hit rock bottom to prioritize your mental health. You deserve a space to work through what's weighing on you, reconnect with yourself, and figure out what moving forward looks like, one step at a time.

Therapy with me is collaborative. I don’t believe you should be given a list of things you “should” do without understanding what is actually happening in your life.

I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, person-centered therapy, trauma-informed approaches, and emotional regulation strategies. Together, we can identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, challenge unhelpful thoughts, develop healthier coping skills, and build a stronger relationship with yourself.

My goal is not simply to help you manage symptoms. I want to help you understand yourself, recognize your strengths, develop practical tools, and feel more confident navigating life.
