About Yvette

Yvette Carreon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 25 years of experience in the mental health field, trained in evidence-based practices and skilled at integrating multiple therapeutic methods to meet each person where they are. She blends elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, narrative and solution-focused techniques, trauma-informed care including Seeking Safety, strengths-based work, and client-centered approaches to create practical, usable strategies for daily life.

Her style prioritizes collaboration and applicability - she works with people to develop coping tools, support self-discovery, and build mastery over recurring challenges. Therapy is framed as a conversation that leads to concrete steps and manageable changes rather than a daunting process. Yvette focuses on helping clients address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, career transitions, and a range of other life and relational difficulties.

She has offered couples therapy in her practice, though that caseload is currently full. Her work has been provided primarily to California residents, with historically limited evening availability, most often on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

Integrating Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the center of the process, emphasizing empathy, respect, and the individual’s own goals so people feel heard and supported while navigating personal or relational challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of therapy itself. Yvette works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences so treatment feels tailored rather than one-size-fits-all. This exploration helps shape clear, achievable steps forward.

Online sessions offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver these approaches by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort while maintaining continuity of care.
