About Yolanda
Yolanda Danforth is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with three years of clinical experience. She spent those years working as a school counselor in a public school system and has added experience supporting people affected by addictions and domestic violence while earning her LPC.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. She also draws on mindfulness-based ideas when helpful. She talks with people about family concerns including blended family issues, family of origin problems, and general family conflict.
Yolanda helps people address feelings of abandonment, emptiness, guilt and shame, and isolation. She also works with concerns such as fertility-related stress, financial worries, prejudice and discrimination, and social anxiety. She aims for clear, practical steps that can be tried between sessions.
Her background in school counseling means she is used to short-term goal planning and brief interventions alongside longer conversations. Sessions typically focus on concrete problem-solving, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and building small habits that ease day-to-day strain.
People who contact her start by picking an online therapy option, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling a first session. She works in English and practises in Georgia as an LPC.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In practice this means identifying a few patterns that cause stress, trying small behavior changes, and checking progress in later sessions. It is often used for social anxiety, guilt and shame, and practical family stress.Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, achievable steps and on what people want to see change. Sessions often set concrete goals and identify the next small action to try before the next meeting. This approach works well for people who want focused, short-term progress around problems like blended household routines or money worries.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped before, then suggest an approach to try. Clients and the therapist can adjust the plan over time based on what works.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into weekday breaks or evenings and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or sessions that focus on step-by-step skills practice without needing an in-person visit.
