Yeni Hercules, LMFT

Yeni Hercules is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and anger. She creates an open space where clients can speak freely and begin making changes at their own pace.

Her approach blends practical techniques with supportive listening. Yeni uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also incorporates relationship-focused work to address communication and intimacy concerns.

Clients come with many kinds of concerns, from depression and grief to work stress and parenting strain. Yeni also supports people dealing with addiction, compassion fatigue, immigration stress, and the fallout of separation or domestic violence. She helps people untangle issues like codependency, attachment wounds, and fear of abandonment.

Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete steps. Yeni offers solution-focused conversations and hypnotherapy elements when appropriate to help people shift patterns faster. She aims to balance skill-building with emotional processing so clients leave with tools they can use between sessions.

Yeni works in both English and Spanish. She encourages anyone thinking about therapy to take the first step and use the Start Therapy button to begin the match and scheduling process.

Approaches you may use in online sessions

Yeni often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thought, feeling, and action so clients can practice small changes that add up.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple awareness skills for stress and anxiety. Mindfulness helps people notice physical and emotional reactions and choose how to respond rather than reacting automatically.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Yeni will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods may fit best. Together you can try approaches and adjust the plan as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use a mix of conversational work, skill practice, and guided exercises that translate well to remote meetings, and Yeni will help match the style and pace to everyday routines.
