More about Sally

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

My name is Sally Hernandez. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a profound commitment to the well-being and mental health of my clients. After experiencing my own struggles with mental health, I discovered a calling to support those who are affected by the challenges of mental illness. This prompted me to return to college in 2014, with a singular goal in mind: to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

Through determination and the knowledge acquired from managing my own mental health diagnoses effectively, I sought an education and career that would allow me to provide empathy, unwavering support, and compassionate care to individuals who may not have the support system I was fortunate to have during the most challenging period of my life. I have years of experience within the inpatient treatment setting as a Primary Therapist to clients struggling with mental health and substance use disorders. I have additional experience as a Clinical Supervisor within the inpatient treatment setting, as well as serving the US Veteran Population as an Outpatient Therapist.

My most cherished aspect of my role as an LCSW is the privilege of witnessing individuals grow, become empowered, and develop the essential skills to manage their own mental health effectively. I am deeply committed to guiding my clients towards growth, healing, and positive transformation.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
