Hi! My name is Ana Hernandez, and I’m currently completing my Master’s in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I’ll be graduating in April 2026, and I’m so excited to begin my practicum journey in September. I’ve always been passionate about helping others, and I feel especially called to support young girls and women as they learn to trust themselves, build confidence, and navigate life’s ups and downs. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow.
I’m especially drawn to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based approaches – not just because of their strong evidence base, but because they’ve made a meaningful impact in my own life. CBT has helped me better understand the connection between my thoughts, feelings, and actions, and mindfulness has taught me the value of slowing down and staying present, both skills that I hope to instill in my future clients.
I’m an immigrant from Venezuela, and I’m proud to offer counselling in both English and Spanish.I believe in meeting people where they’re at – with empathy, compassion, and a genuine desire to help. Whether you’re working through something big or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you.
