Yolanda Dunn, LCSW, CSW

Yolanda Dunn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and addictions. She also supports people facing parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and major life changes. Yolanda practices in Georgia and offers care in English.

Yolanda draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a foundation and blends client-centered methods to make space for each person's story. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying new coping skills, and setting concrete goals. She emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can talk openly about what matters to them.

Her style is practical and collaborative. Yolanda encourages small, manageable steps and uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing when they fit the person's goals. She also brings psychodynamic ideas when exploring patterns that repeat across relationships or over time.

With six years of clinical experience she has worked with a range of concerns from compassion fatigue and family stress to body image and attachment issues. She aims to build rapport quickly so people feel heard and understood before moving to change work.

People who prefer straightforward guidance alongside empathic listening often find this approach helpful. Those interested in starting should confirm the current session options before booking and complete the site's matching questionnaire to schedule a first appointment.

How her approaches shape online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following what matters most to the person. This approach helps people feel understood and encourages them to set goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals and preferences and tailor the mix of techniques accordingly. The process is collaborative - clients and the therapist decide together what seems most helpful and adjust as needed.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to use guided exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices between sessions to support progress.
