More about Yalda
- 9 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with 9 years of experience providing clinical support and specializing in grief and depression.
My professional background includes working with individuals, teens, and families navigating depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and career transitions. I also have extensive experience supporting clients who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapeutic style is collaborative, respectful, and client-centered. I approach each individual with sensitivity and compassion, avoiding stigmatizing labels while focusing on strengths and resilience. Drawing from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive therapy, I tailor interventions to meet the unique needs and goals of each client.
I recognize the courage it takes to begin the therapeutic process and view my role as providing guidance, support, and empowerment as clients move toward greater well-being and fulfilment.
I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
