Alexa N. Hernandez, MSW

My name is Alexa Hernandez, and I am a social work intern currently pursuing my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Rutgers University. I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology, which has provided me with a strong foundation in understanding human behavior, mental health, and emotional well-being.

I have experience working with children and adults navigating challenging life situations, including trauma, stress, anxiety, and major life transitions. My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and a commitment to meeting each individual where they are. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered to work toward meaningful change.

 I utilize a client-centered and strengths-based approach, incorporating various therapeutic techniques to best support each person’s unique needs. My goal is to provide compassionate support and guidance, helping individuals build resilience and achieve personal growth.

My motto: the only impossible journey, is the one you never begin.
