About Justin
Justin Hernandez is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with 13 years of experience. He works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, depression, and navigating major life changes. He also addresses issues related to trauma, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, and LGBTQ matters.
Justin uses clear, direct approaches in sessions. He draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people identify patterns and try different responses. He also uses attachment-based and emotionally-focused methods when relationship and family dynamics are central.
He has a background in crisis counseling and has served in hospitals, private practice, and school settings. For several years he has held leadership roles supporting other clinicians and helping teams work with families at risk of child removal due to abuse or neglect.
In sessions he combines practical skills with attention to relationships and past experiences that shape current behavior. That might mean learning coping skills for anxiety, practicing new ways to talk about conflict, or tracing how early attachments affect intimacy and trust. He aims to offer clear guidance and to involve clients in deciding what to try next.
People often come to him for help with parenting strain, managing bipolar symptoms alongside everyday life, coping after trauma, or sorting career and identity questions. He works in English and practices in Ohio as an LPCC.
How his approaches shape online work
Justin commonly blends attachment-based ideas with client-centered and cognitive behavioral methods. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect trust and closeness, which can help when intimacy or family patterns are causing stress. Client-centered work emphasizes the persons own goals and perspectives, giving space for their priorities to guide each session. Cognitive behavioral work breaks down thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts so people can try different strategies for anxiety, mood, or habits.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust over time. Deciding what to focus on comes from what the person wants to change and what feels realistic for them.
