Yelitza Gallimore

Yelitza Gallimore is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with 11 years of professional experience in North Carolina. She works with adolescents and adults on common concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship stress, parenting challenges, and ADHD. Yelitza also supports people facing eating issues, codependency, recovery from toxic relationships, and trauma or abuse. She is described as queer friendly and accepts international clients.

Her style is gentle, encouraging, and nonjudgmental. She treats each person as the expert on their life and helps them build practical steps toward change. Yelitza focuses on helping people find solutions that feel safe and workable for their daily lives.

Clinically she combines cognitive-behavioral methods with mindfulness and solution-focused work. She also uses client-centered principles to shape sessions around what matters most to each person. When overwhelming feelings arise, she may incorporate somatic tools and energy tapping to help shift strong reactions.

Sessions aim to teach skills and practices that translate into everyday living. She asks clients to try new perspectives and to practice strategies between sessions. The goal is steady progress toward a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.

Yelitza believes reaching out takes courage and meets people where they are. She adjusts pace and methods to fit individual needs and preferences. If someone is ready to take practical steps, she offers collaborative support along the way.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the person says matters most. The therapist follows the client’s lead and shapes sessions around their goals and pace, which helps with feelings of overwhelm and relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. It breaks those patterns into small, practical changes and teaches skills to reduce anxiety, depression, and mood swings.

Mindfulness therapy encourages simple awareness practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional grounding. It can be helpful for stress, eating concerns, and coping with strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest approaches that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and make it possible to meet with a licensed professional from different locations. Because formats are not listed in the biography, confirm which session options are available before booking. The main goal is practical, consistent work that fits into everyday routines.
