Yulando Thornton

Yulando Thornton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage depression, anxiety, workplace stress, and substance use concerns. Her work centers on listening closely and responding to each person's situation with respect and calm.

She creates a space where people can say what they are feeling and begin to untangle painful patterns. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can use between meetings, such as new ways to handle difficult conversations or manage intense emotions.

Her background includes helping people process trauma and rebuild after painful experiences. She pays attention to communication problems, mood disorders, grief, and compassion fatigue. These areas often come up alongside issues like sleep trouble, parenting strain, or job-related stress.

She uses a mix of approaches that match the person in front of her, drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and client-centered work. These methods are offered in straightforward language and focused on real-life problems.

Clients can expect a steady, culturally aware presence that honors diverse backgrounds. The work is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted as needed. People who want to cope with life changes, reduce anxiety, or address addiction often find this approach practical and grounded.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship so people feel heard while they work through problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include trying different tools over time until something feels useful.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during breaks or from another quiet location. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or let someone choose audio rather than video if that feels better.
