Hello, I'm Erica L. Hernandez, a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist based in Eugene, Oregon.
I specialize in Bipolar Disorder, Trauma, and Grief, and for nearly two decades, I've been providing trainings and presentations on these crucial topics.
My mission is to help you discover your inner strength and resilience. I truly believe in your ability to navigate emotional challenges and grow spiritually.
I'm also an active voice in the media, welcoming opportunities for interviews on various platforms.
Through my blog, I aim to provide valuable insights to help manage mood and anxiety issues, cope with grief, and find positivity even in the midst of crisis. I'm here to support your journey.
What if you could read a work of fiction, have fun, and in the process learn concrete tools to manage grief or stress? Evasion is that book!
