Dr. Yves Abraham, LMFT
About me
It is not always what happens to us that impacts us but rather how we respond to what happened. My background in Family Systems Theory enables me to help people connect and consider how multiple factors- including relationships, health, and spirituality-impact one's life. My aim is to counsel, coach and encourage those who may be struggling to achieve in a particular area of life or feel that their growth has been halted. Together, I am certain we can identify your obstacles and reset the course.
Though I am skilled in the treatment of emotional and behavioral issues-including depression, trauma, substance abuse and family stressors- I believe what sets me apart is my ability to uses my gift of insight and compassion in conjunction with my academic accomplishments and experience.
I believe everyone has tools to rebuild what seems broken or shattered. I have helped many activate the right tools at the right time. I have over 20 years of successful experience as a licensed Psychotherapist and has helped a wide variety of adults, couples, children & families reach their goals.
I look forward to helping you!

I knew from our first conversation that she was the therapist for me. I haven’t had any second thoughts or regrets since making that judgment. Highly recommend her.

Dr. Abraham is what I expected in a therapist/counselor. She is a christian and gets to the bottom of things in your life. She makes it a priority to help you become a better you. I am so happy I found her. She's excellent at what she does.

Dr. Abraham is amazing! Through our sessions she has really helped me analyze the many areas of my life and my views of the world through a faith-filled perspective. Our sessions have really challenged me in confronting both my strengths and my weaknesses. I always leave our sessions feeling extremely grateful and blessed to work with somebody that I am able to share my views and beliefs.
