Maytte Hernandez
I am a Certified Holistic Healing Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals release, realign, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Through sound medicine, intentional rhythm, and guided energetic work, I support clients in moving stagnant emotions, clearing old patterns, and opening space for transformation.
My approach blends intuitive wisdom, trauma-sensitive practices, and grounding techniques to help people feel safe, supported, and deeply seen. I have experience working with individuals navigating stress, emotional heaviness, spiritual challenges, and life transitions.
My style is nurturing, honest, gentle, and empowering. Healing happens when we create room for truth, expression, and embodiment.

Arianna Gonzalez,
LMFT
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I bring over 15 years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, culturally affirming, and deeply collaborative, I draw from Attachment Theory, CBT, DBT, and Trauma-Informed Care to provide therapy that is both compassionate and practical. As a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, my journey into mental health was shaped by a commitment to increasing access for communities often overlooked in traditional care. I strive to create a safe, grounding space where clients feel understood, empowered, and supported in building meaningful, lasting change.

Cancellations, Refunds and Reschedule
We understand that life happens, and sometimes plans change. To help our group run smoothly and fairly for everyone, we ask that you give at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to cancel a group session. Cancellations must be sent in writing by email to therapygonzalez@gmail.com to Arianna. If you cancel less than 48 hours before the session, we’re not able to offer a refund or credit. If you decide to withdraw from the group seven or more days before the first session, you’ll receive a full refund minus a $25 administrative fee. If you withdraw within seven days of the start date, you’ll receive a 50% refund. Once the group has started, no refunds are available, except in emergency situations, which may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Because groups have limited spots, missed sessions can’t be refunded or rescheduled, though you may request a brief check-in with the facilitator if possible. If the group is ever canceled by the facilitator or agency, you’ll receive a full refund or the option to transfer your payment to a future group. This policy is designed to keep things fair, transparent, and supportive for all participants.
