Background and approach
She also has experience with caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and cancer-related adjustment. Her method blends practical, time-tested approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Client-Centered Therapy gives space for each person to lead the pace and topics of sessions. Emotionally-Focused and Imago approaches guide conversations about connection and communication when relationships feel strained. Yvette describes her practice as rooted in Christian principles while honoring diverse beliefs.
She aims to create an accepting environment where people can explore meaning and values. The client and therapist build goals together and move at a practical, manageable pace. Sessions may use talk, simple exercises, and short homework between meetings.
The style is straightforward and focused on skills people can use in daily life. Her goal is to help clients find clearer choices and more consistent coping over time.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Yvette uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns in thoughts and actions that keep problems going, then practice new responses to feel and function better. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's pace and priorities, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space for people to name what matters. Emotionally-Focused and Imago ideas are used when relationship connection and communication need clearer paths forward, helping partners or individuals understand emotional needs and repair interactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process aims to match techniques to a person's needs, values, and preferences rather than imposing a single way of working.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
