“A Psychiatrist & Psychotherapist, experienced in the area of trauma & emotions, children & parents.”

About Me

When trauma or overwhelming emotions impact family life, finding support for both children and parents is crucial. Dr. Maria Fernandez Hernandez offers a thoughtful space to explore these challenges. As a Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist, she understands how deeply emotions affect young lives and family dynamics. She helps families build understanding and find practical ways forward, ensuring every voice is heard.

Approach

I help families and parents translate overwhelming emotions into manageable steps and clearer interactions. Virtual sessions allow for a thoughtful connection, and in-person work is available in Torrelodones, with appointments offered in English and Spanish. I combine Child / Adolescent Therapy, EMDR and Relationship Counseling to address child diagnostic assessment, PTSD and relationship issues. This approach suits clients seeking practical support and a structured framework to move from dysregulation and conflict toward steadier family functioning.
