About Justin

Justin Hernandez is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) who brings over 13 years of clinical experience to his work.

Background and approach

He combines a direct yet empathetic style with practical interventions drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and other evidence-informed methods to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. Justin emphasizes collaboration and respects clients as experts in their own lives while offering guidance to meet concrete goals.

His background includes leadership roles focused on keeping children safely in their homes when abuse or neglect are present, alongside prior experience in hospital crisis work, independent practice, and directing services for children with emotional disturbance. Justin has long supervised other therapists and supports colleagues in using strategies to reduce family disruptions and improve parent-child communication.

He works with individuals, couples, and families across a range of concerns including mood disorders, ADHD, intimacy and communication problems, and caregiver stress. Located in Ohio, Justin approaches care with attention to practical skills and relational patterns, helping clients build coping tools, address trauma-related challenges, and improve how they relate to important people in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care



Justin draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teach practical coping skills, which can be especially useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and managing ADHD-related challenges. He also uses attachment-based and emotion-focused elements to explore how early relational patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses, helping clients improve communication and intimacy.

Deciding on the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, consider preferences, and select strategies that fit the client’s needs, adjusting methods over time as progress and feedback guide the work.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow for ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and access to therapy from different locations, making it easier to maintain continuity of care while pursuing practical and relational goals.
