Yolande has been a wonderful therapist who has helped me through some incredibly difficult times of my life. She has listened without judgement, given me sound advice, and is proactive in pointing out some of my problematic thought patterns (of which I highly appreciate and find extremely valuable). I would highly recommend her.

I'm thoroughly enjoying my experience with therapy on BetterHelp, especially with Yolande! She’s incredibly kind-hearted and open-minded, offering her clients unconditional acceptance. Yolande is also remarkably creative in finding new solutions and helping explore different perspectives, giving me fresh ways to look at challenges. I’d absolutely give her a 10/10 as a therapist —highly recommended!

Yolande is the sweetest person and makes you feel so understood, supported and not judged in any way.
It doesn’t matter what I tell her, she has some kind of knowledge of it, either personally or through dealing with the matter with other people.
Her extensive CBT knowledge has been invaluable for breaking old beliefs that I’ve carried since childhood.
Starting therapy with her has been the best decision I’ve ever made and I would highly, highly recommended her to anyone thinking of giving therapy a go.

Yolande has been an amazing therapist, she has helped me through a very difficult time with such professionalism and warmth. I felt I could tell her anything as she created a very judgement free zone for me to open up and work through some challenges. I would strongly recommend Yolande to anybody who needs a supportive, listening ear. I will miss my sessions but they have enabled me to get to a point where I feel content and ready to tackle any challenges I should face. Thank you Yolande! X

Yolande Dewar has been a huge help to me at a time when I didn't know how to untangle a situation. It became simple and solvable. I have rekindled faith in my own decision making thanks to the conversations we had.
