Yoany Lopez Hernandez

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

“Hello, I am Yoany Lopez-Hernandez, I am here to support my clients through rough times and overcome trauma related issues focusing in healing and building self-love and self-confidence.”

About Me

I am here to support you through life's rough patches, especially when overcoming trauma-related issues feels daunting. Together, we will gently explore your experiences, focusing on healing and cultivating self-love and confidence. My aim is to help you build inner strength and find a path towards lasting well-being. Sessions offer a safe space to process emotions and discover practical steps for feeling more grounded.

Approach

When overwhelm takes hold, I guide you toward small, steady shifts that reconnect you to values and inner strength. In Miami I offer sessions in English and Spanish and also meet online, creating a predictable, paced space where we notice what keeps you stuck. Sessions blend present-moment awareness, acceptance-based skills and short, practical experiments between meetings to reduce reactivity, build self-trust and broaden choices. People facing adoption wounds, anxiety, mood shifts or major life changes often find this steady, hands-on rhythm helpful.
