About Yolanda
Yolanda Bouligny is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing relationship and family concerns, anger, compassion fatigue, and related struggles.
Her approach is straightforward and person-centered. She listens to what is happening now, and she helps people name overwhelming emotions. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape relationship patterns and attachment. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice thoughts and try small behavior changes.
Sessions focus on simple, practical steps and clearer emotion words. Clients can expect conversations that identify repeating patterns, practice new ways of responding, and set small goals for daily life. She works with issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt, shame, and forgiveness.
Yolanda uses client-centered techniques to follow each person's pace and priorities. She can help people manage worry, increase confidence, and cope with big changes. Her background supports people facing aging and geriatric issues, hoarding, and the effects of trauma and loss.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their emotions and how those feelings affect relationship patterns. In online work this often means identifying key emotion moments and practicing new responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-based action. It helps people commit to small, meaningful steps even when feelings are difficult. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current connections and helps people develop different ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That discussion often happens in the first few sessions and can be adjusted over time.
The original biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to work on emotion awareness, communication skills, and small behavior experiments without changing daily routines.
