About Ana

Ana Herrera is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support. She uses an approachable style to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and changes in life. Ana speaks English and Spanish and brings 15 years of experience to her sessions.

She favors a client-centered stance that starts with listening. That means she asks about what matters most and builds goals with each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors.

Background and approach

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is also part of her approach for people who have been through traumatic events. Sessions are grounded and goal-focused. Ana mixes practical exercises, brief tools, and check-ins so people can use what they learn between meetings.

She also offers coaching-style conversations for career questions and life purpose exploration. Nature walks are sometimes integrated when a client prefers being outdoors while talking. Her background includes work with trauma, anxiety, depression, and issues related to family of origin and multicultural concerns.

Ana has particular experience supporting young adults and women navigating life transitions and career steps. She keeps explanations simple and uses clear techniques clients can try right away. People who choose Ana can expect straightforward planning and steady support.

She helps set short-term goals and reviews progress regularly. The pace is collaborative, so the plan can change as needs do.

Online support

Approach-Focused Online Therapy Options

Ana uses client-centered work to begin therapy by listening and shaping goals around what matters most to the person. This approach helps clarify priorities, build trust, and guide practical next steps for stress, self-esteem, or life changes.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which teaches ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday coping strategies because it focuses on clear skills and small experiments you can do between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That way sessions stay relevant and practical.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and different communication styles. Video lets people use visual cues and fuller conversation, while phone can be a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text work well for brief check-ins, homework review, or when someone prefers typed conversation. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and practice skills between meetings.
