About Haley
LMHC licensed in New York with three years of clinical experience, Haley Hernandez helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and questions around sexuality and LGBT concerns. She also focuses on self-esteem, panic attacks, social anxiety, and coping with life changes. Haley practices using Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Haley starts by listening to what matters most to the person sitting across from her. She uses direct conversation to identify patterns that maintain worry or low mood. When helpful, she introduces CBT techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. She keeps explanations straightforward and practical so techniques are easy to use between sessions.
Her work with sexuality and LGBT issues emphasizes respect for identity and open discussion about sexual concerns. For panic and social anxiety, Haley breaks down symptoms into manageable steps and practices breathing or behavioral experiments where appropriate. For self-esteem and motivation she helps people notice small successes and try new approaches to daily routines.
Haley adapts pacing to what feels doable. Sessions focus on concrete skills and short-term goals alongside space to talk through feelings. She explains methods plainly and checks in about how a technique is working.
To begin, she asks about current struggles and what a better week would look like. From there she and the person set targets and track progress with practical exercises and regular review.

How Haley Uses Client-Centered and CBT Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. The therapist follows the client's concerns and helps clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, low mood, and social fears.Figuring out which approach to use is collaborative. Haley will talk about options, try a method for a few sessions, and adjust based on what the client finds helpful. The aim is to match techniques to goals and everyday routines rather than stick rigidly to one method.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online work fits into day-to-day life because it can reduce travel and make it easier to schedule brief check-ins or regular weekly sessions. Online sessions can also allow sessions without being on camera or with shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss format and timing when setting up the first appointment so sessions fit practical needs and weekly routines.
