About Yazmin

Yazmin Coleman is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with eight years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, self-esteem, depression, addictions, family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting. She also addresses ADHD, bipolar disorder, and common parenting pressures.

Yazmin uses a client-centered style. Sessions tend to center on practical steps people can try at home. She listens for patterns in thinking and behavior, then offers tools to change unhelpful habits. She often brings skills from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches into conversations.

Clients can expect direct discussion about coping strategies. Yazmin may introduce mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing techniques to build motivation and manage cravings or compulsive behavior. She aims to help people notice automatic reactions and choose different responses.

Her background in social work informs a focus on real-life problems. That includes parenting stress, blended family challenges, communication problems, and issues like abandonment or attachment wounds. She also supports people dealing with grief, infidelity, guilt or shame, and life transitions.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the site button.

How sessions work

How Yazmin uses proven approaches online

Yazmin draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thought patterns that keep stress and anxiety active and testing small behavior changes to reduce worry and low mood. Dialectical behavior therapy teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance when anger or impulsivity arise.

She also uses client-centered ways of working, which means sessions emphasize what matters to the person in front of her. Deciding which mix of approaches to use is collaborative. The therapist will help identify goals and try methods that fit the client’s needs and preferences, adjusting them over time based on what helps.

Please confirm the specific online session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example reducing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in on a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. These practical benefits can make regular meetings more manageable while you practice new skills between sessions.
