Stacy Hernandez

Hello! My name is Stacy Hernandez.  Born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, I relocated to Tallahassee to attend Florida State University and pursue a degree in Sociology (go ‘Noles!). During that time, I met and married my husband and have lived there for most of my adult life. I recently packed up everything, and moved to the Jacksonville area with my husband, our newborn son, and our cat, Goldie. I am excited to begin our new journey in the First Coast and thrilled to be part of the Family Therapy Associates of Jacksonville team.

My passion for helping couples originated in childhood. I have been fortunate to see healthy (although not perfect) models of marriage all of my life.  My parents were married for 23 years before my father passed away, my sister has been married over 30 years, and my husband and I are nearing 20 years of marriage. 

Perhaps you didn’t see or experience a healthy role model of marriage in your life, and as a result, you might not be sure how to create that in your own relationship. Or, maybe you have healthy models of relationships, but are struggling to experience that in your own marriage. There’s good news! You can learn the skills of how to communicate better, resolve conflict, and experience a happy, healthy relationship. You can increase your emotional, physical and spiritual connection with your partner, and get your needs met. You deserve for your love to last forever. I can help guide you to a relationship.

Who I can help

Individuals: If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, work-life balance, or healthy boundaries, I can help.

Couples: Are you struggling to connect? Are you trying to recover from an emotional or physical affair? Are you stuck in the same cycle of conflict? I can help you want to find better ways to communicate, fight fair, and feel more romance and passion. I can also help couples process the challenges associated with infertility.

Parents: If you’re struggling with parenting, or your children are causing problems in your romantic relationship, I’d love to help. Being a parent has it’s tough moments, but certain situations can add even more stress, such as dating after children, blending a step-family, or if your child suffers from behavioral or social challenges. If you’re at your wits end with parenting your child, or you’re experiencing relationship distress with your partner, you don’t have to manage it alone. I can help you reconnect to your mate, offer strategies for parenting, and help you experience more peace.

Children & Adolescents: I help children and teens struggling with anxiety, depression, social interactions, break-ups, bullying, or adapting to changing family situations (parents’ separation, divorce, blended family).

While I am clinically trained, I can work from a faith-based perspective if you feel that would be beneficial to you. Researcher has shown that for religiously-oriented people, incorporating the spiritual aspect in therapy results in more positive outcomes.  

I am so excited to work with you, and help you experience more health and happiness in your life and relationships.

Biography:

I attended the Florida State University, where I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology, and recently completed my Masters of Arts Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Northcentral University. I am a registered marriage and family therapist intern with the State of Florida (IMT3412), accruing hours towards full licensure. I have completed trainings John Gottman’s work, Emotionally Focused Therapy Externship (EFT – a highly research based couples treatment model) as well as trainings on other evidenced-based family therapy theories and interventions. 

In my spare time, I enjoy hanging out with my husband and infant son, spending time with our church family, watching college football (Go Noles!), travelling, cycling and visiting with family and friends. 

 

NOTE: Stacy Hernandez is a registered marriage and family therapist intern with the state of Florida and is under the direct supervision of Dr. Tabitha Johnson and Kristen Montiel. Sessions may be recorded for training purposes.
