About Yvonne
Yvonne Espinoza is an Arizona Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, parenting challenges, depression, relationship and family concerns, and intimacy-related issues. Yvonne speaks English and Spanish and draws on several therapy styles in her sessions.
She uses client-centered methods to make sessions focused on each person’s perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work when patterns of thinking and behavior are creating more distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) are also listed among her approaches and are used depending on what a client needs.
Yvonne has spent time as a clinical manager and a team lead over the last three years. That experience informs how she organizes care and coordinates supports for people with complex concerns such as trauma, dissociation, or ongoing caregiving stress. She emphasizes practical skills and clear steps during sessions.
Her additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, body image, cancer-related stress, communication and control issues, and relationship commitment concerns. She also notes work with dissociation, domestic violence, divorce and separation, and disruptive mood dysregulation related patterns.
Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Yvonne does not take international clients. To begin, readers are invited to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Yvonne draws on client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on the person’s own priorities and perspective. This approach means the therapist listens for what matters most and follows the client’s lead in setting goals and topics to work on.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship-related patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills appear in her work as a way to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and adjust methods as therapy progresses. The decision is based on symptoms, personal preferences, and what seems to help in early sessions.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time - practical benefits that help people maintain regular work on their concerns.
