Justin Hernandez

Justin Hernandez is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio. He brings 13 years of experience to sessions and focuses on practical strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, and trauma. His approach is straightforward and warm, aimed at helping clients talk through immediate concerns and find clearer steps forward.

As a clinical director with a background in preventing child removal from homes, he has worked in hospital crisis settings, private practices, and schools for children with emotional disturbances. That background informs a calm, problem-focused way of working in the room. He emphasizes clear communication and skills that families and individuals can use between sessions.

Justin’s clinical style is direct and empathetic. He leans on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused ideas to address symptoms and daily challenges. He also draws from attachment-centered work when relationships and closeness are part of the concern.

He often supports people coping with trauma, including emotional abuse, physical abuse, and neglect, and helps with issues like depression, anger, parenting strain, and intimacy concerns. He frames clients as the experts on their own lives and offers guidance and tools to reach their goals.

Sessions emphasize concrete skills, improved communication, and practical plans for change. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of closeness and trust between people. It helps when relationship worries, abandonment fears, or communication breakdowns are part of the problem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating issues, and day-to-day coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That shared planning can include trying techniques from both attachment work and CBT to match what a client needs in practice.

Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in this profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or offering options when camera use is difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and communication tools to work well in remote sessions, and the therapist will help tailor the process to each person’s routine and needs.
