About Adriana
Adriana Hernandez helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, or major life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 14 years of experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist. Her style is direct but warm, aimed at helping people feel steadier and more capable in everyday life.
She begins by listening to each person’s story and identifying practical steps that fit their needs. Adriana sees strengths people already have and builds on them.
How Adriana works
Sessions focus on small, doable changes that add up over time. Adriana uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person’s own goals and values. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
These approaches are applied to concerns like low self-esteem, workplace stress, isolation, and relationship communication problems. Her work also addresses abandonment and attachment worries, caregiver stress, control issues, and life transitions such as divorce or the end of a relationship. She helps people work through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Practical tools and check-ins are common in sessions, along with motivational techniques to support follow-through. Adriana aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant, so people can use what they learn between meetings and notice real changes over weeks and months.

How Adriana’s Approaches Work Online
Adriana often combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals, which can be useful for sorting out values, life purpose, and self-love. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, and workplace stress.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, try strategies, and change course if something does not fit. Sessions are collaborative and adapt as needs and preferences become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat is good for shorter check-ins, and text messaging helps people keep work on progress between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent momentum over time.
