About Yolanda
Yolanda Bouligny is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She is based in Texas and works with adults who are coping with life changes, relationship strain, caregiving stress, and compassion fatigue. Yolanda aims to be a steady, practical presence as people talk through difficult feelings and make changes that matter.
She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, usable steps - skills to calm intense moments, thoughts to challenge unhelpful beliefs, and actions that rebuild confidence. The tone is collaborative and respectful, with room for the realities of everyday life. Yolanda draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy to shape work in the room.
She also includes techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and client-centered methods when they fit a person's needs. These methods are used to address a range of concerns from hoarding and family-of-origin issues to guilt, shame, and abandonment concerns. With three years of clinical experience as an LPC, Yolanda blends practical skill-building with attention to personal history and relationships.
She supports people exploring forgiveness, commitment worries, control issues, and emotional emptiness. The aim is to help people move toward a steadier daily life. Yolanda offers sessions in English through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood. It often includes homework and practical exercises to build skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current trust and connection, which can be helpful for relationship strain, abandonment concerns, and family-of-origin issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yolanda will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. The process is collaborative, with adjustments made as progress is tracked over time.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good when visual connection matters, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is preferred. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, skill practice, or people who prefer text-based conversation. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while using the approaches described above.
