More about Yumi

10 years' experience
Female
LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 9 yrs of experience in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. I specialize in helping clients address a range of concerns, including relationship issues, parenting challenges, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and coping with significant life changes.

My approach is to create an open and safe environment where you can freely share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling life and take the initial steps toward change, and I am here to support and empower you on that journey.

For me, being a therapist and a coach is deeply rewarding. This work allows me to work alongside individuals who are struggling and helping them begin and continue on a path of healing, recovery, and personal growth. I believe in the inherent potential for growth within each of us, and I strive to help clients realize that potential in many aspects of their lives.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
