About Obdulia
Obdulia Hernandez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with five years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career concerns, and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. She works with individuals who are also managing caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, communication problems, panic attacks, and questions about life purpose and self-love.
Her style is straightforward and practical. She focuses on clear conversation about what is happening now and what feels most urgent. People can expect to talk through specific symptoms, daily challenges, and immediate coping steps. Obdulia encourages honest talk about emotions and circumstances without judgment.
In sessions she and the client set small, concrete goals. These may include ways to reduce panic symptoms, handle caregiver responsibilities, or rebuild confidence at work. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide those steps and to teach tools clients can use between meetings.
Obdulia is comfortable switching between English and Spanish as needed during sessions. She asks about the client’s current routines and practical barriers so work done in therapy fits into daily life. Her approach is collaborative and focused on what will help the person manage day-to-day demands.
To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule the first session. The work that follows emphasizes small changes that make daily life more manageable and clearer decisions about next steps.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Obdulia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on symptom management and practical skills. One common approach she applies teaches breathing and grounding skills to reduce panic and intense anxiety. These are short, repeatable exercises clients can practice between sessions to gain more control over sudden symptoms.She also works with problem-focused techniques to address mood and motivation problems. This involves breaking larger tasks into small steps, tracking what helps and what does not, and adjusting daily routines to support mood and energy. For grief and life purpose concerns she uses conversational methods that help people make meaning of loss and identify next steps for work or relationships.
Finding the right approach often happens together. The therapist will discuss options, try methods in session, and adapt based on how the client responds. This collaborative process helps decide which techniques suit the person’s goals and day-to-day life.

Licensed professionals can use these advantages to keep momentum between meetings and to practice skills in real-life contexts.
