About Yolanda
Yolanda Orta Swope is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who want help with anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, and the ways these issues affect relationships and family life.
Yolanda focuses on both personal concerns and relationship stressors. She helps people name feelings and patterns, and then works on practical changes. That might mean learning new communication skills, changing unhelpful thoughts, or trying different ways to respond when stress spikes.
Sessions cover emotional processing and behavioral work. She uses clear steps to help clients understand how past events shape present reactions. Clients practice skills they can use at home and at work.
Yolanda also addresses parenting and family problems that come up alongside individual issues. She talks through coping strategies for blended household challenges, co-parenting stress, and loyalty conflicts. The aim is steadier day-to-day functioning rather than quick fixes.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those tools guide discussions and homework, but the pace is set by each person. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish for people located in Texas.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Yolanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to clarify feelings and how they show up in close relationships. EFT helps people understand emotional responses that affect connection and communication. Solution-Focused Therapy appears in sessions as brief, goal-oriented work that identifies practical next steps and small experiments to try between meetings.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which tools to try and adjust them as needed over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from a quieter place when that helps concentration.
