Yolande has been a wonderful therapist who has helped me through some incredibly difficult times of my life. She has listened without judgement, given me sound advice, and is proactive in pointing out some of my problematic thought patterns (of which I highly appreciate and find extremely valuable). I would highly recommend her.

I'm thoroughly enjoying my experience with therapy on BetterHelp, especially with Yolande! She’s incredibly kind-hearted and open-minded, offering her clients unconditional acceptance. Yolande is also remarkably creative in finding new solutions and helping explore different perspectives, giving me fresh ways to look at challenges. I’d absolutely give her a 10/10 as a therapist —highly recommended!

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.

Yolande is the sweetest person and makes you feel so understood, supported and not judged in any way. It doesn’t matter what I tell her, she has some kind of knowledge of it, either personally or through dealing with the matter with other people. Her extensive CBT knowledge has been invaluable for breaking old beliefs that I’ve carried since childhood. Starting therapy with her has been the best decision I’ve ever made and I would highly, highly recommended her to anyone thinking of giving therapy a go.

Reviewed February 2024

Yolande has been an amazing therapist, she has helped me through a very difficult time with such professionalism and warmth. I felt I could tell her anything as she created a very judgement free zone for me to open up and work through some challenges. I would strongly recommend Yolande to anybody who needs a supportive, listening ear. I will miss my sessions but they have enabled me to get to a point where I feel content and ready to tackle any challenges I should face. Thank you Yolande! X
