Sylvia Rapini De Yatim, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Sylvia!

I support clients with a grounded, attuned approach that helps them feel understood from the start. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My work is practical and empowering, guiding clients toward clarity, resilience, and long-term emotional balance.

My focus

I work with adults and teens managing anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I offer supportive, culturally responsive care and am bilingual in English and Spanish, and also speak Italian. My focus is on helping clients regulate emotions, build confidence, and reconnect with their strengths.

My approach

My approach is eclectic and collaborative, integrating evidence-based clinical approaches to meet each client’s needs. I think creatively and outside the box when helpful, focusing on emotional insight, self-awareness, and practical tools that support healing, resilience, and lasting growth.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, direct, and highly attuned. I’m engaged and thoughtful in how I offer feedback, bringing a grounded and supportive presence to our work. Clients describe our sessions as empowering and insightful, with space to explore emotions and create meaningful, lasting change.

My journey to mental healthcare

Living and working across different cultures and countries deepened my understanding of resilience, identity, and human connection. These experiences shaped my commitment to providing therapy that is grounded, practical, and compassionate, helping clients find clarity, stability, and purpose.

My goals for you

We set meaningful goals together and track progress in ways that feel encouraging and manageable. Through practical tools, emotional insight, and evidence-based care, I help clients understand patterns, reduce distress, and build confidence in creating healthy, lasting progress in their lives.

Our first session

In our first session, I focus on understanding your story, current challenges, and what you hope to gain from therapy. You can share at a pace that feels comfortable, and I’ll guide the process with care. Together, we begin building trust, clarity, and a supportive direction that reflects your needs and goals.
