About Yulando

Yulando Thornton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 11 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, and ADHD. Her work centers on clear, practical steps that fit each person's life.

She listens first to learn what matters most to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on real problems like sleep disruption, workplace strain, grief, and relationship tension.

Background and approach

Yulando uses straightforward strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Her style blends acceptance-based and cognitive approaches with mindfulness and motivational techniques. That means clients practice small changes, notice what gets in the way, and build new habits over time.

She also draws on narrative and client-centered ideas to center each person's story and values. Yulando pays attention to communication problems, guilt and shame, and how mood issues affect work and family life. She works with people facing trauma, addiction, anger, and compassion fatigue, helping them find tools to cope and recover.

Her aim is to help clients gain more control over their reactions and choices. In sessions she focuses on collaboration and clear goals. Expect plain language, honest feedback, and techniques you can use between meetings.

People who want a practical, respectful approach that addresses both feelings and behavior often find her way of working helpful.

How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention exercises to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist partners with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That means trying tools in session, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed. Online sessions aim to make therapy fit into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations when that feels important. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging offer quick check-ins, written reflections, and ongoing support between meetings. These options give flexibility to practice skills in the moments they matter and to keep momentum when life is hectic.
