About Yolanda

Yolanda Bouligny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She listens without judgment and supports people as they work through painful emotions and everyday struggles.

She uses straightforward talk and practical tools. Sessions focus on coping skills, improving mood, and bolstering confidence. Yolanda also helps people manage anger, compassion fatigue, and relationship or family concerns in clear, step-by-step work.

Her approach draws from several well-known methods. She may use strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify their values and commit to meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-based ideas can guide work on relationship patterns and trust.

Yolanda has three years of clinical experience in counseling. She works with people dealing with abandonment issues, caregiver stress, hoarding, guilt, shame, and aging and geriatric issues among other concerns. Her practice emphasizes steady progress and practical next steps.

Clients start by describing what feels most urgent. From there she tailors sessions to each person's needs and goals. People interested in beginning complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Yolanda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on helping people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are difficult. CBT helps people notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior that keep distress going, which can reduce anxiety and low mood.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and trust. That work can help people communicate more clearly and form healthier bonds. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for continuing steady progress while juggling caregiving, work, or other life demands.
