About Janette
Janette Hernandez is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures like anxiety, relationship stress, grief, depression, and life changes. Janette also addresses attachment and family-of-origin issues, eating and body-image concerns, and challenges related to identity and addiction.
She practices from a client-centered stance, meaning she treats each person as the expert on their own life while bringing clinical tools and practical skills. Sessions often include clear, goal-focused techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practice. Janette also uses attachment-based ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships.
In a typical session she listens first, then helps people name one or two manageable steps to try between meetings. She teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. For someone feeling stuck after college, juggling first jobs and relationships, or rethinking family dynamics, she focuses on small changes that fit everyday life.
Janette has worked with adults facing trauma, mood disorders, and stress related to caregiving or burnout. Her background includes eight years of practice supporting adults through transitions such as career shifts and relationship breakups. She offers sessions in English and works from California as an LMFT.

How Janette blends approaches for online work
Janette combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based ideas to address relationship patterns and everyday stress. Client-centered work focuses on the person's perspective and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for anxiety, depression, and coping with change. Attachment-based ideas help name recurring relationship patterns and improve communication.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your goals and preferences and adapt methods so they fit your needs. This is collaborative: you try specific techniques and then refine what helps most based on what actually works for you.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list formats. Ask about session types during the matching step. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, and busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and let people continue care during moves or life transitions. Confirm the exact session options available before your first appointment.
