About Yvette
Yvette Dehn is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maryland with more than 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Yvette also offers guidance around relationship challenges, family tension, and parenting concerns.
Her work starts by listening. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and helps them find clearer direction. Sessions aim to build practical skills and steady emotional footing rather than quick fixes.
How Yvette works
Yvette blends proven techniques like cognitive behavioral methods with client-centered conversation. She also brings in elements of meaning-making and mindfulness to help people notice what matters and change unhelpful patterns. This approach is meant to be hands-on and understandable in day-to-day life.
Faith informs her practice and she integrates Christian principles when it fits the client, while respecting different beliefs and perspectives. The focus is on supporting personal growth, not imposing a worldview. She works with people facing complex or overlapping concerns, including issues tied to adoption and foster care, attachment, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and grief.
The goal is to strengthen coping skills and clarify next steps so people can move forward with more confidence.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the person's experience and creating a respectful, empathetic space. It helps people who need a listening relationship and gentle guidance to find their own answers.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches practical tools for anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem that people can use between sessions.
Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and how emotions shape interactions. It can help people learn different ways to connect and communicate when relationship issues cause pain.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust over time. Together you decide which techniques feel most useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make scheduling easier and let people get help without traveling.
