About Jack

Jack Hernandez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of counseling experience. He works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and major life changes. He also addresses relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD related challenges.

Jack uses straightforward, practical conversations to help clients sort through what feels overwhelming. He helps people notice how their actions line up with their values. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings. He encourages realistic experiments rather than quick fixes.

His approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, and mindfulness practices. Those methods are used to spot unhelpful patterns, shift attention, and build small habits that reduce reactivity. Motivational interviewing techniques are used to explore what a person really wants to change and why.

Jack also brings elements of the Gottman Method when relationship skills are part of the work. He pays attention to how communication and patterns of interaction keep problems repeating. Practical skills and short exercises are taught so clients can try different ways of responding in real life.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Jack helps people break big problems into manageable steps and tracks what does and does not work. He invites clients to experiment, adjust, and notice progress over time.

How Jack uses ACT, CBT and mindfulness online

Jack often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values. ACT is useful for reducing avoidance and living with uncomfortable feelings while still moving toward chosen goals.

He also uses elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify specific thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active. CBT tools include tracking triggers, testing unhelpful thoughts, and practicing alternate responses in everyday situations. Mindfulness-based practices are taught to increase awareness of bodily signs of anger and to create brief pauses before reacting.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to find which methods fit their goals and preferences and will adjust tactics as progress is tracked. Expect decisions about tools and pacing to be shaped by your needs and what feels workable.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so clients can focus on practicing skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can use a range of approaches online to teach skills, coach through difficult moments, and review what changes are helpful.
