I’m an LMFT from Guam, currently residing in Los Angeles, and I specialize in all things relationship(s)! Whether you’re navigating a romantic relationship, family dynamics, friendships, or your relationship with yourself, I’m interested in understanding what’s happening beneath the surface. My work is grounded in understanding how our past experiences shape the way we see ourselves, the world, and—most importantly—how we connect with others. Together, we can explore the patterns you’ve developed, where they came from, and whether they’re still serving you today.

Jose Hernandez

Therapist

Virtual • California


I’m a naturally curious, growth-oriented human who believes healing happens when insight meets action. I love helping people zoom out to see the bigger picture of their lives—while also gently zooming in on the patterns, habits, and beliefs that shape their everyday experience.

I’m drawn to the intersection of self-awareness and real-world momentum. Therapy with me is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded. We can explore the deep stuff—identity, relationships, purpose, transitions—while also building practical tools you can actually use on a Tuesday afternoon when life is lifing.

I value emotional honesty, nervous system regulation, and sustainable growth over quick fixes. I believe you’re not broken—you’re adaptive. Together, we figure out what’s working, what’s outdated, and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned, empowered, and authentically you.

Expect warmth, insight, humor when it fits, and a space where all parts of you are welcome. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical and cold—it can be connected, intentional, and even a little energizing.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in San Bernardino

Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in San Bernardino starts with looking for identity-affirming care. An affirming therapist may support concerns related to identity, coming out, family dynamics, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, or gender-related stress. As you compare therapists, look for training or experience in affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health-informed support. A therapist’s listed specialties and bio can help show whether their experience matches what you want from care.

San Bernardino has local therapy options, and nearby access can vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual appointments can expand your options, especially when you want an LGBTQIA+-affirming therapist with specific experience. When narrowing your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and work with LGBTQIA+ communities.

Therapy in San Bernardino can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who match your needs, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can review bios, choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available, and book directly when you’re ready.
