In 2019, I walked the 500 miles of the Camino de Santiago. What I learned during that journey informs my clinical work. I think of life as a journey that is walked one step at a time. Along that road there will be challenges. Our job is to face them in ways that tap into our strengths and allow us to grow. Helping you find the path forward is my commitment to my clients. Over the course of my career, I have had the opportunity to witness profound growth in my clients, students and colleagues. Resilience humbles me. We are stronger than we realize.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 40 years experience in private practice and various non profit organizations. I've worked with children, adolescents, adults and families, in schools and community agencies as a therapist, social worker, clinical director, supervisor, executive director and university instructor.

Jose Hernandez

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 Together, we figure out what’s working, what’s outdated, and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned, empowered, and authentically you.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.
