Background and approach

Prospective clients choose sessions through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and scheduling is arranged based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Yolanda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her online work. ACT focuses on helping clients clarify personal values and build willingness to experience difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action. CBT emphasizes identifying and shifting patterns of thinking and behavior to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She approaches treatment collaboratively, recognizing that choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic journey. The therapist will explore a client's goals, preferences, and life context and together determine whether ACT, CBT, or a blend of techniques best supports progress over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it possible to engage in consistent work from varied locations, adjust session formats as needs change, and maintain momentum between meetings through messaging when appropriate.
