About Yeni
Yeni Then-Yaegel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with 28 years of professional experience. She speaks English and Spanish and lists stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting, and self-esteem among the issues she helps people with. She also notes experience with social anxiety and related problems such as isolation and obsessive behaviors.
She works with people across many life stages and backgrounds. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than long theoretical talks. Yeni uses methods that help identify unhelpful thinking and small changes that can reduce distress in day-to-day life.
Her approach emphasizes direct problem solving and building skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) appears in her toolkit to address patterns of thought and behavior that keep anxiety and low mood going. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set short-term goals and notice progress through manageable actions.
Yeni notes experience with autism, avoidant personality features, caregiver stress, blended family issues, eating and food-related concerns, and family-of-origin difficulties. She also lists work with obsessive-compulsive patterns, abandonment issues, intellectual disability, and midlife questions. This range means she often combines practical coping techniques with focused problem-solving in sessions.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Because she practices in New Jersey and uses a subscription model for sessions, prospective clients choose a plan, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule an initial appointment to begin.
How CBT and Solution-Focused work online
Yeni uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test thoughts and behaviors that increase anxiety. CBT sessions are often practical and involve exercises you can try between meetings to reduce avoidance and uncomfortable thinking. Solution-Focused Therapy is goal-oriented and concentrates on small, concrete steps that build toward a clearer sense of progress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Yeni will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying approaches, checking how they feel in practice, and adjusting the plan together as needed.
Specific session formats are not listed in her biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice coping skills in the settings where challenges occur and brings structured, skills-based sessions into everyday life.
