About Janette
Janette Hernandez, LMFT, centers her work on Mindfulness Therapy and a person-centered attitude. She helps people notice patterns in their thoughts and actions and build small, realistic skills to cope. Her style is calm and straightforward, focused on meeting each person where they are. Janette draws on eight years of clinical experience in California as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
Janette uses mindfulness and client-centered methods to slow things down and make options clearer. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thinking and with attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape current struggles. Sessions are practical and focused on what a person needs right now.
Many people come for help with anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship or family problems. Janette also supports people coping with addictions, body image and eating issues, anger, self-esteem, and career strain. She pays attention to patterns such as codependency, abandonment worries, and control issues.
In conversations she emphasizes collaboration. Clients bring their knowledge of their own life and Janette offers tools and observations to test between sessions. Work might include tracking thoughts, practicing grounding or breathing, or trying different ways to speak about needs with others.
Janette has worked with adults, youth, and families in clinical settings, and she adapts methods to each person’s situation. Her approach aims to be respectful, steady, and focused on small changes that add up over time.
How mindfulness and practical therapy work online
Janette blends Mindfulness Therapy with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to shape online work. Mindfulness Therapy helps people learn simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and notice what matters in day-to-day life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns that form in close relationships and how those patterns affect current stress or conflict. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's pace and priorities rather than imposing a fixed agenda.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Janette works together with each person to test methods and see what helps most. That collaboration means trying practical tools, checking how they land, and adjusting direction based on goals and comfort.
Before booking, confirm which session formats are offered for scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during the day or avoiding travel time. It can also allow steady practice of mindfulness exercises between sessions and simpler continuity when circumstances change. Discuss format options and timing with Janette when you schedule to find arrangements that fit your routine.
