Yolanda Garcia

My communication style

During our sessions, you can expect to feel safe, where you can speak freely and be heard without judgment. I am open to listening to your concerns, and you can expect to feel comfortable telling me anything. The best way to work through issues is to be open and honest, which is what you can expect from me as your therapist.

My journey to mental healthcare

I share empathy and compassion when working with and talking to people. I understand what it feels like to be so sad that it's difficult to get out of bed. I understand the struggles of getting through daily tasks when all you want to do is cry.

My goals for you

I am client-centered and ask the client what they would like to get out of our meetings. The client is the expert in their own life, and for that reason, I learn how to help the client by walking alongside the client during their journey.

Our first session

My goal is for a client to be as comfortable as possible from the first session. I have been told that the first session can be a little awkward or uncomfortable at first. Therefore, we will not dive into anything that is extreme. A client can expect to tell me a bit about themselves and the reasons they are reaching out to talk with me.
