Nikki Hernandez

she/her
Nikki
is a therapist at Two Chairs.
Nikki enjoys working to build a strong collaborative relationship with her clients and to provide a safe space that allows the client to express thoughts and needs and to work on their growth and desired progress. Nikki approaches therapy with a family-systems and early-childhood lens, as she feels that whether she is meeting with an individual, couple or family, we all come from a system and our early childhood informs our development from birth on. Nikki enjoys helping clients delve into their family history to identify cycles, the development of belief systems, how life is approached and what experiences have influenced all this. She is invested in walking by her client’s side in a supportive and empathetic manner to help the client navigate stress and transitions, manage thought patterns, identify healthy self-perspectives, and more.

Nikki enjoys spending time with her family, listening to music, reading (sometimes :D ), enjoying movie nights, and having quiet time to unwind and relax. Nikki loves laughter, popcorn, sleep, food and goodies.
