About Yolanda

Yolanda Dunn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and depression. She also supports those facing parenting strain, anger, ADHD, and the emotional fallout of trauma and abuse. Her approach is warm and straightforward, grounded in building trust and practical problem solving.

Yolanda uses a mix of methods to meet people where they are. She leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking. She pairs that with Client-Centered techniques to make space for each person’s story. Motivational interviewing and mindfulness tools are added when they fit the goal.

Sessions focus on clear steps and everyday skills. Yolanda works with clients to set realistic goals, try new coping strategies, and track small changes over time. Conversations are direct but empathetic, aimed at useful results rather than jargon.

Her background includes six years of clinical work. She holds the credential LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and also lists CSW. She practices in Georgia and draws on experience with a broad range of concerns, including family and adoption-related issues.

Yolanda describes the therapy room as a warm, nonjudgmental place to talk. She emphasizes collaboration and gives practical tools people can use between sessions. The focus is on helping clients take manageable steps toward feeling better and functioning more effectively.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and encourages self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yolanda treats the choice of method as a collaborative decision. She will discuss goals and preferences and adjust techniques as needed so the plan fits the person's needs and pace.

Confirm which session formats are available before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make regular appointments easier to fit into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises or CBT worksheets during sessions, and it supports consistent momentum toward recovery and coping goals.
