About Yas
Yas Farrokhseresht is a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and relationship concerns. Yas also notes a focus on guilt and shame alongside related struggles like attachment and abandonment.
Her practice centers on clear, practical work. Sessions are used to unpack difficult feelings, notice patterns that keep problems going, and practice new ways of relating. She pays attention to how past hurts and cultural background shape current stress and self-judgment.
Yas helps people strengthen communication skills and manage intense emotions. She offers strategies for coping after loss, separation, or situations that caused shame. She also supports those dealing with financial strain, isolation, or adjustments in midlife.
Her approach balances understanding with action. Conversations include looking at beliefs that fuel guilt, testing them, and trying alternative responses. She will also work on concrete skills for mood regulation and clearer interactions with others.
Yas speaks English and Persian and brings experience addressing multicultural concerns. People interested in starting work with her are asked to follow the site's intake steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Evidence-based approaches and how online work fits
Yas draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding emotions and changing unhelpful patterns. One common way she works is to help people identify the thoughts and beliefs that fuel guilt and shame, then test those thoughts with real-life experiments to see if they hold up. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and persistent self-blame.She also uses methods that teach concrete emotion regulation skills. These skills help reduce overwhelm, manage mood swings, and improve responses in heated conversations. Learning specific tools makes it easier to practice changes between sessions and notice small improvements over time.
Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. Yas will discuss options, listen to your goals and preferences, and adjust the work as needed. The focus is on practical steps that fit your life rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Please confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, make attendance easier on workdays, or allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Talk with her during intake about what will best fit your routine and needs.
