About Patricia

Patricia Hernandez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of experience. She works with people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Patricia also addresses issues such as abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, and guilt and shame.

She keeps language plain and focuses on practical conversation. Sessions involve talking through what feels most urgent, naming patterns that keep problems going, and practicing small changes that can feel manageable day to day. The emphasis is on clear steps rather than jargon or long lectures.

Patricia combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with straightforward support. She pays attention to how past experiences affect present behavior and helps people notice and shift unhelpful thinking. Work may include examining beliefs about blame, testing assumptions, and building self-directed coping skills.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and are provided virtually. Patricia asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before the first meeting so she can learn about goals and current difficulties. The practice uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

People who reach out will find a therapist who aims to be practical and direct. Patricia encourages steady progress through repeated small steps. If you carry guilt or shame about relationships, decisions, faith, or actions, she can help you name what’s happening and try new ways of responding.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are the foundation of her work. One approach focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and beliefs. This helps with guilt, self-criticism, and repetitive worry by testing assumptions and trying alternative ways of thinking. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult memories and their emotional impact. That work helps people who carry trauma or long-standing shame to put feelings into words and reduce their hold on daily life.

Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they choose methods and adjust the plan as needed so sessions fit the person’s needs rather than forcing a single technique.

All sessions are provided virtually, so confirm the exact session options before booking. Online meetings can make regular check-ins easier to schedule and let people fit therapy into work breaks or home routines. They can also allow for shorter focused sessions or sessions in Spanish when that is preferred. Ask about available session types when completing the matching questionnaire so practical arrangements can be set before the first appointment.
