New to Grow
Hello, My name is Raquel Rezentes- Hernandez and I have been practicing in the field of mental health as a licensed clinical therapist for the past six years. I enjoy working with people, exploring life challenges, learning to navigate through obstacles in which we all have struggled throughout our lives. I am originally from Hawaii in which I have moved to Texas a few years ago to pursue to career and serve the community with supports that I can offer. I enjoy helping others through their journey of healing, growing and developing. I look forward to working with you!
Clients can expect a safe, confidential space, empathetic active listening, collaborative goal-setting, practical coping strategies, and respectful boundary enforcement from you during psychotherapy that is secure, calm and peaceful.
Bringing healthy personal strengths to therapy helps you build a strong connection with your counselor and make meaningful progress. Key strengths include self-awareness, an open mind, resilience, a willingness to be honest, and the capacity for self-reflection in addition to Self-Awareness: Noticing your own thoughts, feelings, and behavioral patterns. Open-Mindedness and I am ready to look at situations from a new point of view. I am also very resilient in which I have experienced hardship and have grown the inner grit to keep going, even when sessions feel tough.I am also very honest in which I enjoy sharing true experiences instead of hiding hard truths.
An ideal therapy client is self-motivated, honest, and ready to take personal responsibility for their growth. Rather than possessing a specific diagnosis or background, an ideal client shows up consistently, engages in hard inner work, and remains open to feedback during the therapeutic process, willing to process emotions and work through struggles in life that may be difficult to process to develop emotional growth.

Cognitive therapy is a type of talk therapy that helps you see how your thoughts affect your feelings and actions. It teaches you to spot negative or false thoughts, change them into positive ones, and feel better.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a structured talk therapy that focuses on mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation. Developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan, it helps people balance self-acceptance with positive life changes and help with building emotional tolerance.
Grief therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy designed to help people process deep emotional pain, cope with severe or complicated reactions to a major loss, and adjust to life after bereavement or life-altering events using a variety of techniques to help process and heal from grief and loss.
Person-centered therapy operates on the humanistic belief that the client is inherently driven toward and has the capacity for growth and self-actualization; it relies on this force for therapeutic change. The role of the counselor is to provide a nonjudgmental environment conducive to honest self-exploration with allowing the client to feel heard, supported and guided.
In REBT, irrational beliefs are considered central factors of emotional distress, so the focus is on changing irrational beliefs into rational beliefs, with the aim of changing dysfunctional emotions and maladaptive behaviors into functional and adaptive ones. I work with patients on helping them to explore their irrational thoughts and to find balance, understanding and solutions.
