Yvonne is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, with 15 years of experience practicing in Alabama. She aims to help adults manage anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and life transitions.
How Yvonne works
She also addresses relationship struggles, parenting concerns, sleeping problems, and challenges tied to chronic illness or caregiving. Her work often focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and changing them into workable habits. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down problems into concrete steps.
Mindfulness practices are introduced to build awareness and reduce reactivity. Yvonne also draws on client-centered and solution-focused methods that highlight personal strengths. Motivational interviewing techniques help people move from thinking about change to taking action.
Sessions tend to be practical, with tools and small experiments clients can try between meetings. The first session is conversational and paced for someone who may feel nervous. She collects background information and discusses current concerns and goals.
From there she collaborates on a plan that fits the client’s life and priorities.

How Yvonne Uses Practical Approaches Online
Yvonne commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns in their thinking that affect mood and behavior, then try small changes to test new ways of acting. She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment awareness and reduce automatic reactions to stress. These approaches are useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking how they feel, and adjusting the plan together so sessions stay helpful and relevant.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits in her practice. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share brief updates, try coaching-style prompts, or keep momentum between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
