About Judith
Judith Huerta is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Minnesota with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addiction, grief, and trauma. She also helps people dealing with intimacy issues, codependency, body image, and caregiver strain. Her practice is offered in English and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
Judith centers sessions on the person's own story and strengths. She treats the client as the expert on their life and asks clear questions to uncover patterns that keep causing pain. Conversations move toward specific skills and choices rather than abstract theory. That means talking through boundary setting, communication habits, and ways to manage strong emotions.
Her approach draws on attachment-based work to look at how past relationships shape present reactions. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior therapy skills to manage intense feelings. For clients with trauma history she offers EMDR as one of the options to address traumatic memories.
Judith has supported people through addiction, family-of-origin issues, abandonment, and forgiveness work. She offers coaching-style help for practical life changes such as sleep, eating patterns, and caregiver stress. Sessions tend to be straightforward, focused, and aimed at shifting day-to-day habits that matter.
To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How Judith’s therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Judith uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships influence current patterns. This approach helps people recognize why they react the way they do in close relationships and what small changes can reduce repeated hurts.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and habits that keep problems stuck. For managing intense emotions, she incorporates dialectical behavior therapy skills that teach practical coping tools and distress tolerance.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Judith listens to the client's goals and preferences, then suggests which methods to try first. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps and what feels manageable.
If you want to book, confirm current session options before scheduling. The profile notes a short matching questionnaire and a first-session booking step. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit therapy into a work break, avoid travel time, or use a shorter check-in when days are busy. Ask about session length and format when you complete the questionnaire to pick what will work best for your routine.
