About Yoany

LMHC (Florida), 8 years of experience. Yoany Lopez Hernandez helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Yoany uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on naming stressful patterns, learning practical ways to reduce anxiety, and improving communication in relationships. She works on issues that often overlap, such as abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and panic attacks.

Her style is direct and collaborative. She invites clients to talk about what’s happening and then practices concrete skills together. That can include calming techniques for panic, steps to address intrusive or shame-based thoughts, and role-play for difficult conversations.

When trauma or abuse is part of someone’s story, Yoany attends to safety and pacing. She helps people notice how past experiences shape current reactions, and then develops small, manageable steps for change. Therapy can also address life transitions such as divorce, separation, or recovering from infidelity.

Practical concerns like cancer, caregiving demands, and isolation are included in sessions. Yoany recognizes how guilt, forgiveness, control issues, and problems with communication affect daily life. She asks about immediate needs first, then designs each session to focus on one or two clear goals.

How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions

Yoany works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on reducing symptoms and building skills. One common approach is skill-based work for anxiety and panic: this involves learning breathing and grounding exercises, identifying triggers, and practicing short behavioral steps to reduce the frequency of panic attacks. It helps people manage immediate symptoms and regain a sense of control.

Another common focus is trauma-informed pacing. That means noticing how past events affect present reactions, slowing down when memories or intense emotions appear, and taking gradual steps toward processing difficult material. This approach supports work on trauma, abuse, and attachment-related issues without pushing beyond what feels manageable.

Choosing the right method is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and therapist decide together which exercises or strategies to continue and which to change.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday or work break, reduce travel time, and allow more flexible scheduling. For some people, shorter check-ins or phone conversations can work better when video is difficult, while others prefer a full session with conversation and practiced skills.
