Yadilis Hernandez Rodriguez, LCSW

Yadilis Hernandez Rodriguez is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with eight years of practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, depression, and major life changes. Her approach is respectful and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel understood and able to move forward.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as one of her main methods to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people clarify values and build a more workable relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions are conversational and practical rather than academic.

Yadilis adjusts each plan to fit individual needs. She talks through coping skills, problem solving, and small, achievable steps people can try between sessions. This can include mood tracking, behavioral experiments, and building routines that support wellbeing.

She also addresses concerns such as abandonment and attachment issues, body image, communication problems, guilt and shame, immigration-related stress, impulsivity, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Mood and personality disorders, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress, and self-harm are also areas she has worked with.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. People who choose her can expect a calm, attentive clinician who aims to tailor the work to each person’s goals and daily life.

How CBT and ACT can work online

Yadilis commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and try small behavior changes that can reduce symptoms. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood-related concerns because it focuses on clear skills and experiments you can practice between sessions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and commit to actions that move them toward those values, even when difficult feelings appear. Client-Centered Therapy shows up as a supportive, nonjudgmental stance that keeps the sessions focused on each person’s goals and experience.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Yadilis will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences and will adjust the plan as therapy progresses. The aim is to match techniques to concrete goals rather than using a single method for everyone.

Online sessions offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues are helpful, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports brief check-ins, and text-based messaging lets people send updates or questions between meetings. These options make it easier to practice skills in real time and keep therapy consistent around work, family, or travel.
