About Susana
Susana (Susie) Hernandez is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults and teens who are coping with anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, and issues tied to relationships and family life, including blended family issues. Susie also weaves clients' faith and spirituality into counseling when they wish to include those elements.
Susie places the counseling relationship first. She focuses on building trust so clients can speak honestly about difficult topics. That emphasis on connection shapes how she approaches therapy sessions.
Her work draws on several practical methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how early relationships affect current connections.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Susie helps people name what matters, practice new ways of reacting, and try specific skills between meetings. She aims to make sessions straightforward and actionable rather than full of jargon.
Outside of clinical work she spends time with family, exercises at a park or gym, and enjoys cooking. That everyday grounding informs how she talks about routines, roles, and practical changes in clients' lives.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions by combining acceptance of difficult feelings with committed action.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It provides concrete exercises and homework to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as needs change.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around work, school, or family responsibilities.
