Lisa Marie
Hernandez LCSW
I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker who walks along side of my clients through this journey we call "life". I bring over 12 years of social work experience and have specialized trauma, crisis management, parenting struggles, anxiety, chronic illness and spiritual care. I enjoy working with individuals and families to help navigate the struggles life bring. No matter what part of life my clients are in, I meet them where they are at and I am honored to have a part in their journey to wellness and wholeness.
In my own life journey, I am a wife of 23 years and a mother of two amazing, adult children. My family are avid animal lovers and have rescued and rehomed dozens of animals. I am no longer surprised when one of my family members comes home with a stray they picked up off the side of the road. Currently we have 5 dogs, 5 cats and a 4 parrots. My self care hobbies include quilting and sewing.
Therapy
Individual Sessions, Couple & Family Sessions
We offer personalized therapy sessions focused on trauma, chronic illness, anxiety, and depression and so much more. Our aim is to help you navigate your unique challenges and find effective coping strategies. Faith based approach is used to incorporate the client's faith as a strength in sessions when appropriate. We work with individuals, couples and families.
Consultation
Legal Social Work
We provide valuable support to attorneys by conducting comprehensive mental health evaluations, including psychosocial assessments, diagnoses, and evaluations of functioning, trauma, competency-related factors, and mitigation issues. LCSWs prepare clear, legally relevant written reports for use in criminal, family, juvenile, immigration, and civil cases, and may serve as expert witnesses by offering professional opinions within their scope of practice. They also consult with attorneys to interpret mental health records, identify key clinical issues, and inform case strategy, while providing treatment and progress documentation that can support sentencing mitigation, custody determinations, diversion programs, or alternative case resolutions.
Crisis Intervention
Debriefing and Evaluation
Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) debriefing is available following crises or traumatic events, providing immediate support and guidance when it’s needed most. We create a safe space for healing for anyone affected, including first responders. Our services include offering psychological support, stabilizing emotions, facilitating structured debriefings, and helping participants process reactions to incidents such as accidents, violence, line-of-duty events, or disasters. We assess coping, identify risk factors, provide psychoeducation on normal stress responses, and connect individuals to ongoing support or mental health services, promoting recovery, resilience, and psychological safety.
Forensic Social Work
Mental Health Evaluation, Expert Witness in Court
We provide forensic social work services that bridge mental health and the legal system with a trauma-informed, clinically sound approach. Our services include comprehensive psychosocial and mental health assessments, court-ready written reports, consultation with attorneys, and expert input within our scope of practice. I work collaboratively with legal professionals and attorneys to help courts understand the psychological, social, and environmental factors that affect individuals involved in criminal, family, juvenile, civil, and immigration matters, supporting informed and appropriate legal outcomes.
Spiritual Care
We provide person-centered approach that addresses your spiritual, religious needs as part of your overall well-being. We focus on helping you find meaning, purpose, hope, connection and deeper spiritual connection, especially during time of stress, illness, trauma, loss or major life changes. We explore beliefs, values while supporting your faith practices with respect and integrity. You will find compassion and non judgement no matter your faith, beliefs or background. There are no taboo subjects, we firmly believe that in order to have true spiritual freedom, we have to talk about the hard things. Truth brings freedom. We don't carry shame.
