Meet Our Founder
Yesenia "Jessie" Hernandez, LPC
Hello there! My name is Yesenia Hernandez, but many people know me as Jessie. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and founder of The Harbor Counseling & Wellness Services, PLLC. I have experience working in a wide array of settings including children's homes, hospice care centers, jails, and outpatient clinics. My 11 years of experience has equipped me with skills to help my clients with a variety of concerns. I have worked on multiple crisis response teams alongside law enforcement and am well versed in working with medical providers and first responders. I have a special interest in working with individuals who have experienced trauma in their life and use a combination of talk therapy and evidence based approaches to help clients develop coping skills and experience noticeable symptom relief. Outside of sessions you can find me spending time with my family and our pups, exploring the outdoors and checking out new restaurants.
My approach
Life’s storms can seem isolating, but you don't have to navigate them alone. Together, we will look at patterns/themes and past events that are causing distress, as well as, barriers that keep you feeling stuck. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and confidential environment to help nurture personal growth, self-awareness, and resilience. As your therapist, I take a collaborative approach offering support that helps facilitate growth in insight about yourself and tools that can help bring about positive change in your own life.
