Online support

Approaches and what online work looks like

Yolanda draws on Existential therapy to help people weigh meaning, choice, and responsibility in their lives. This approach invites reflection on values and purpose and can be useful when someone faces loss, life transitions, or questions about direction. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to teach ways of accepting difficult emotions while taking steps toward what matters. ACT can help with anxiety, depression, and coping when unwanted thoughts or urges get in the way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust plans with your input. Sessions are collaborative, with practice goals and tools you can use between meetings.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well for lower bandwidth or quicker check-ins, and messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible so it can fit into work schedules, caregiving duties, or travel.
