Fayth Hernandez LCMHCA
Psychotherapist
Hi, I’m Fayth! I’m a Psychotherapist in Durham NC, who believes that therapy should be a space where you can show up as you are without fear of judgment. I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where you can feel seen, heard, and understood while working toward meaningful change in your life. I have my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern New Hampshire University.

Eating Disorders, Body Image, Mood Disorders and Anxiety
Wherever you are in your journey, my goal is to provide a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself and begin working toward the changes that matter to you. Maybe anxiety makes it difficult to quiet your mind, depression has left you feeling disconnected from yourself, or overwhelming emotions seem to take over. You may find yourself struggling with food, criticizing your body, feeling like you’re never “good enough,” or simply feeling stuck and unsure of how to move forward.I especially enjoy supporting individuals experiencing eating disorders, disordered eating, body image concerns, anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns, and major life transitions. Whatever brings you to therapy, you don’t have to have everything figured out before asking for support.
Clients I Work With
I work with teens and adults who may be exhausted from trying to hold everything together or frustrated that the ways they’ve been coping just aren’t working anymore. I especially enjoy supporting individuals experiencing eating disorders, disordered eating, body image concerns, anxiety, depression, mood-related concerns, and major life transitions. Whatever brings you to therapy, you don’t have to have everything figured out before asking for support.
How Therapy with Me Can Help
Therapy with me is collaborative, meaning we’ll work together rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. We’ll explore what may be keeping you stuck, identify patterns that are no longer serving you, and develop practical ways to cope with difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences.I draw from approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while tailoring therapy to your individual needs. In everyday terms, that might mean learning how to respond differently to negative thoughts, manage overwhelming emotions, understand yourself with more compassion, and make choices based on what truly matters to you.
On a more personal note...
Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy staying active through aerial arts, getting lost in a good book, and spending quality time with my family. I’m also a proud dog mom to two dogs who keep life entertaining and are always happy to provide some extra company. In my free time, you can usually find me reading, spending time with the people I love, or enjoying time with my pups.
