Hi, my name is Yolanda. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over over 14 years of therapy experience in various treatment settings.
Some people come to therapy looking for support, a place to vent and process, or to make specific changes. Perhaps you want to better understand yourself, improve your relationships, or work through a past trauma that still affects you. As a licensed therapist and life coach, I can help.
I can help you address life challenges, make healthier decisions, work on self-esteem and confidence, and improve your interpersonal relationships. My goal is to help my clients achieve a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling quality of life.
My approach is holistic, person-centered, strengths-focused, and collaborative. I believe in adapting to the unique needs of each client. You are the expert on your life, and I bring the clinical expertise to help guide you to the solutions you are looking for.
We all have our journey in life, and I am honored to play a helping role in yours. If you’re ready to do the work, I’m right there with you.
Talk soon!

Yolanda is very communicative and encouraging. I know if I send her a message she'll reply to me in a timely manner. I look forward to our sessions because she alleviates my anxiety and helps me feel better.

Yolanda listens and helps me work through things at my own pace, yet still holds me accountable for my growth. She responds quickly and always provides relevant feedback.

A lot of my anxiety about therapy was "wasting my therapist's time," afraid I was saying too much about the wrong things. I feel extremely comfortable sharing as much as I feel I need to about any topic with Yolanda. It never feels like I am 'Too much.'
