About Yolanda

Yolanda Danforth is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Georgia. She brings three years of counseling experience and a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. She previously worked as a school counselor and has supported people in settings focused on addictions and domestic violence.

Yolanda often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior, and Solution-Focused Therapy, which emphasizes concrete steps toward goals. She also draws on mindfulness-based ideas to help people manage stress and stay present during difficult moments.

Her experience includes individual and group work in school and community contexts. That range has informed a simple, task-oriented approach: identify a concern, try small changes, and review what helps. She aims to keep sessions clear and goal-focused so progress feels measurable.

People come to Yolanda for family-related concerns and matters tied to relationships and identity. Common topics she supports include abandonment, blended family issues, domestic violence, fertility concerns, and family of origin problems. She also addresses feelings like emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation, and social anxiety.

Yolanda frames therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people set realistic goals, try short-term strategies, and adjust plans based on what works. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site's Start Therapy button and complete a brief matching questionnaire.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Yolanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try alternative behaviors. CBT is useful for social anxiety, guilt, and shifting daily routines that are causing stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes to reach specific goals, which can help with family problems, feelings of emptiness, or moving forward after loss.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work she does with each person. She will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, then try methods that match those needs. Progress is reviewed together so the plan can change if something is not working.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to continue work between in-person appointments. Licensed professionals tailor the mix of approaches to what helps each person most.
