Yvonne Schlueter-Promes, LIMHP

Yvonne Schlueter-Promes is a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) with more than three decades in mental health care. She uses clear, practical approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, mood shifts, and other life disruptions. Her style is open and nonjudgmental, focused on steady support and skill building.

She combines cognitive behavioral strategies with acceptance and mindfulness ideas. That mix helps people change unhelpful thinking and stay present with difficult feelings. Sessions often include practical exercises, skills coaching, and short-term goals that fit day-to-day life.

Yvonne has long experience helping people with ADHD, bipolar mood issues, trauma and abuse, and substance concerns. She also works with relationship challenges, communication problems, and parenting strain. Aging and geriatric issues are listed among her additional focus areas.

Her approach is grounded in human-centered care. She aims to create a friendly, consistent space where clients can practice new ways of coping. Therapy is collaborative so people can shape goals that matter to them.

Yvonne trained at Wayne State College and holds a master’s degree in education with a specialization in agency-based counseling. She brings practical tools and decades of work in clinics, schools, and community settings. That background supports clear, hands-on help for everyday problems.

People who choose her can expect straightforward language, step-by-step skill building, and attention to what works in their life. She offers sessions in English and welcomes international clients.

How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes values-based action so clients can take steps toward what matters despite discomfort. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Both approaches include clear, homework-style exercises you can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yvonne will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan over time so the therapy fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit a single method.

The original biography does not specify which remote formats are used, so confirm available session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people continue care if they move or are living outside the therapist's immediate area. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to work well in remote sessions, with focused practice and tools to use between meetings.
