About The Clinician
Yolanda is a licensed graduate marriage and family therapist committed to treating individuals, couples, and families. Her clinical interests lie in treating couples’ issues in periods of transition (preparing for marriage, parenthood, or divorce), couples in crisis, loss, and issues related to life cycles.
Yolanda is both a nurturing and direct therapist, displaying patience with the process of treatment and provides a safe and secure therapeutic relationship in which clients can process their vulnerabilities. With a client’s aspirations in mind, she holds him or her accountable for the change they desire and moves with them on their path to authoring or re-authoring their stories.
Yolanda received her master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the Liberty University. She is experienced in crisis intervention, Integrative therapeutic approaches (psychology and Theology), experience in couples’ issues (particularly regarding marriage prep, infidelity, loss, and infertility), and family relationships across generations in the context of sociocultural practices. In addition to her clinical work, Yolanda pursues her interests in clinical training as a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA), and the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC). She is also a Certified Community Chaplain, to support the needs of the local community.
