About Yeni

Yeni Hercules is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life changes. Sessions are available in English and Spanish.

She uses direct, practical methods to help people notice what is standing in the way of clearer decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work, helping people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. She also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused strategies to build short-term skills for managing stress and sleep.

Clients often bring concerns such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, grief, codependency, immigration issues, or struggles with self-esteem and career direction. Yeni helps people examine those problems and set practical next steps rather than making big promises.

New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the online process. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Yeni integrates therapeutic methods in online work

Yeni commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method in her clinical approach. CBT involves identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and then trying small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or trouble sleeping. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication patterns and resolving recurring conflicts in relationships through specific exercises and conversation techniques.

She also incorporates mindfulness and solution-focused strategies to build immediate coping skills and to set concrete, short-term goals. Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try approaches, and adjust the plan based on what fits the client's needs and preferences.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Ask about available online session types when you sign up. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or letting someone choose audio-only when video isn't practical. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework so the work continues between sessions without promising any particular outcome.
