Trauma cuts deep. It has the ability to knock the wind out of you and throw you off course. It can creep up gradually, or sometimes feel as though it strikes all at once. The process of finding someone that you trust to work with you in some of your most tender moments can be incredibly intimidating. I would be honored to talk with you and see if we would be a good match in your process of healing.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or struggling to cope with life's challenges? Taking that first step to ask for help can be daunting, but you've already shown courage by considering it. Just like standing at the edge of a high dive, it can feel scary and intimidating. But remember, you're not alone, and reaching out for support is a significant achievement in itself.

Are you stuck, unable to move forward in your life?

Anyone can give advice.  In my experience, people come to therapy looking for something they cannot get anywhere else. Usually they are struggling with anxiety, depression, or some other issue that they have not been able to solve on their own. How does therapy help? My philosophy is that we heal through relationship—not in isolation. So rather than providing a list of pre-scripted tools, I strive to develop genuine connections with my clients. But beyond simply looking for relief from troubling symptoms, my goal is to help you create the life you want to live.

Many of my clients are high-achieving, bi-coastal creatives and professionals.

Hello, my name is Brian Fernandez. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). My approach in therapy is focused on providing you with coping skills to help you manage stressors, while at the same time helping you identify changes you may want to make that enable you to lead a more genuine and fulfilling life. My areas of practice focus on depression, anxiety, grief, and interpersonal relationships. By far the majority of clients I've worked with have been young adults struggling with anxiety and/or depression. I've also been privileged to have helped many people dealing with grief, as well as interpersonal relationships.

I assist individuals & couples in learning to address their inner life through an approach that helps work with "unfinished family business" from childhood that shows up today as unstable/conflictual relationships, depression, anxiety, trauma, etc. I bring over 21 years of experience working with individuals of various self-identities who seek to address either short-term issues/conflicts or desire to work on a deeper level psychologically. I specialize in working with gays & lesbians, though my approach is ideal for all persons, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, who seek a more authentic lived experience.

Change starts with the first step. Insight paired with action drives lasting change. However taking the step to foster change in one's emotional life can be frightening and overwhelming. With me you will find a safe, caring environment, where together we travel a path of emotional discovery that will lead you to a better life. Based in West Hollywood, my practice is designed to help you understand yourself at a fundamental level, to give you tools and craft an approach that is healing and meets your specific needs. Building trust in the therapeutic journey, in an atmosphere that supports emotional growth and lasting change.

Are you overwhelmed? Irritable? Anxious? Are you having difficulty sleeping, tired of being tired, or stuck in a rut? I can help you establish some clear and attainable goals related to improving how you cope and your relationships. I will work collaboratively with you to help you regain control over your life and teach you how to regulate your emotions. Most of us have been affected by traumas or our childhood in one way or another, and I am very experienced in helping clients to uncover this and how to move forward adaptively.

Everyone has a story to tell, and a unique set of circumstances, challenges, and experiences that make us who we are. I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a safe space in which they can be heard and receive support in navigating any issue that prevents them from being the person they want to be. I have experience working with children, teens, and their families, as well as young adults, working on issues ranging from anxiety and depression to self-esteem, trauma, difficulty adjusting to life transitions, complicated relationships, or with people who simply wanted to get to know themselves better.

Everyone deserves an enriching life full of meaning and purpose regardless of the difficulties that may come our way. My goal is to provide an affirming space for you to develop a deep understanding of yourself, explore challenges you’re facing both internally and externally, and discover healthy ways to achieve your goals. No matter where our work together takes us, you will always receive unconditional acceptance, respect, and care.
