About Yovani
Yovani Hernandez is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people navigate emotional challenges. She practices in North Carolina and offers therapy in English and Spanish. Clients can expect a warm, culturally aware approach that pays attention to each person’s background and daily reality.
Her sessions focus on concrete changes rather than labels. She listens for what matters most to the person and helps them set small, doable goals. That might mean learning skills for anxiety, finding better ways to talk about relationships, or addressing sleep and rest concerns that affect daily life.
Yovani uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, among others. She blends those approaches to suit the person in front of her and the problems they bring. Therapy tends to include skill-building, real-life practice, and reflection on patterns that get in the way of wellbeing.
She brings attention to cultural context and life stage when shaping care. Sessions often look at communication, boundaries, and self-worth. Parenting strains, grief, and work stress are common themes she helps people address.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, and sleep problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills, which can help with intense emotions and relationship difficulties.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That plan can shift as progress and needs become clearer, so therapy stays practical and tailored.
