I took forever to sign up for therapy. After telling others to utilize therapy, and even working as a therapist im constantly urging people to ensure their mental health is well at all times. I finally signed up and Ms Yvette has been a breath of fresh air. I look forward to every session. She reminds me of the tools I have in my toolbox, she helps me problem solve and work through the constant feeling of being overwhelmed. She actively listens. She understands. She also holds me accountable. Im so glad I found her!

As a licensed therapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients address stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and career difficulties. I have expertise in and enjoy supporting older adults and individuals experiencing life transitions, chronic health conditions, and neurodevelopmental differences.
My approach is compassionate and tailored, focusing on helping clients develop self-love, overcome isolation, and build resilience. I understand the intricate ways financial stress, seasonal mood changes, and personal identity intersect with mental wellness. Drawing from years of clinical experience, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their strengths and develop meaningful coping strategies.
I am committed to providing culturally responsive care that honors each individual's unique journey. My goal is to empower clients to cultivate inner strength, navigate challenges, and create more fulfilling lives.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
