About Yvonne
Yvonne Holguin is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in New Mexico with three years of professional experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, parenting challenges, depression, and compassion fatigue. Her practice is aimed at practical support for everyday problems rather than abstract labels.
Yvonne listens for the strengths a person already has and uses those as a starting point. Sessions focus on clear steps a person can try between meetings. She explains options plainly and helps decide which small changes could make day-to-day life more manageable.
Her work includes attention to attachment and relationship patterns, separation and divorce stresses, and the emotional effects of adoption and foster care. She also addresses issues such as codependency, caregiver strain, body image, and substance use concerns, with an emphasis on problem solving and coping skills.
Yvonne aims to break down big problems into doable pieces. Conversations tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with time spent on skills people can use right away. She encourages clients to try approaches and then review what helped and what did not.
People who choose her often want straightforward guidance and active collaboration. She asks about daily routines, stressors, and supports, then works with clients to build steps that fit their lives. New clients are guided through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling for a first session.
Approaches and what online sessions involve
Yvonne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and behavior change. One common approach she uses helps people learn concrete coping skills for stress and anxiety, such as breathing techniques, activity scheduling, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. These tools aim to reduce immediate distress and make challenging moments more manageable.Another approach centers on problem solving and behavior change for addiction and daily functioning. This involves identifying triggers, setting small measurable goals, and tracking progress over time to adjust strategies that are not working. These methods are useful for building routines and handling setbacks in a straightforward way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change as progress is reviewed and new issues come up, so clients have an active role in shaping their care.
Session format options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session choices before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about the available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first meeting.
