About Yanely
Yanely Grullon is a Pennsylvania Licensed Professional Counselor (PA LPC) and a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (NY LMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting strain, career questions, and social anxiety and phobia among other issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and clients should follow the site process to begin.
Grullon draws on client-centered ways of working alongside solution-focused and cognitive behavioral tools. She listens for strengths and practical steps, then helps people test small changes that can reduce stress and worry. The work often includes talking through specific situations, trying new ways of responding, and tracking what helps.
She has experience supporting people from immigrant and refugee backgrounds, young students and professionals, and people of color who face cross-cultural stress and acculturation challenges. That background informs how she addresses family conflict, communication problems, and issues tied to immigration or blended families.
Her approach also attends to trauma, mood problems, and grief when these are part of what someone brings to sessions. In practice this means combining trauma-focused ideas with CBT to address distressing memories, unhelpful thinking patterns, or sleep and eating concerns connected to stress.
Sessions emphasize clear goals and short-term strategies when that fits the person’s needs. Clients can expect a collaborative process focused on concrete steps for coping, improving interactions, and managing daily responsibilities so stress and relationships feel more manageable.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Yanely often uses client-centered approaches and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can identify their own next steps; it helps with confidence, communication issues, and relationship concerns. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address sleep or eating problems. Solution-focused methods concentrate on small, achievable goals and immediate strategies for coping with stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. That collaboration makes it easier to move from talking about problems to trying specific techniques that fit daily life.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, or caregiving by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use phone or video depending on what feels practical that day, for example picking a call instead of video when bandwidth is limited or choosing a shorter session during a work break.
