About Yslande
Yslande Vilsaint is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Connecticut. She creates a calm, welcoming space for people who feel overwhelmed or stuck. She helps with stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, and self-esteem concerns.

She also supports people facing abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, body image struggles, caregiver stress, and multicultural concerns.
How Yslande works
Yslande blends practical tools with a warm, person-centered style. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to build coping skills and small, workable goals.
Sessions are aimed at clear, manageable steps. She listens first, then helps set short-term goals and strategies you can use between meetings. The work is collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs and rhythm.
People often come for help after life changes, loss, or when old patterns start to cause pain. Yslande aims to strengthen coping skills, improve communication, and restore a sense of control. Her practice focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support options
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist creates a warm, nonjudgmental space and follows your lead to identify what matters most and what you want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress when you want concrete tools to practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, try a few techniques, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. This collaborative process makes it easier to find strategies that fit your life and pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how you connect. Video calls let you talk face-to-face; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you need a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit people who prefer writing or want brief support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between sessions.
