You Are More Than What You’ve Been Through.
You’ve spent a long time holding everything together.
You show up for work, your family, your relationships, and the people who need you but somewhere along the way, you may have started to feel disconnected from yourself.
You are navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship patterns, cultural expectations, major life transitions, or the weight of experiences you have not yet had the space to process.
You understand what is happening intellectually, but still find yourself feeling stuck.
If you are ready to better understand yourself, heal from what has shaped you, and create a life and relationships that feel more aligned with who you are becoming, I invite you to reach out.
You do not have to know exactly where to start. We can begin there.
"Healing happens when we care for the mind, honor the body, and listen to the wisdom within."

Yarisell Hernandez, LMHC-D
Relationship and Trauma Therapist in NYC
I help people navigating trauma with emotional, relational, cultural, and life challenges, learn to have inner clarity, better connections, and stop negative self-talk.
As a first generation Latina raised in Harlem, I have experienced the impacts of childhood and neighborhood adversities on rising cases of depression, anxiety, a deep sense of fear/ distrust, and a belief that you cannot get to the other side of a negative environment or mindframe.
Therapy is your space. Together, we can explore the connections between your experiences, your relationships, your body, your identity, and the ways you have learned to cope and survive.
You do not have to know exactly what to say.
You are allowed to want more for yourself.
More clarity. More connection. More understanding. More space to be fully yourself.
