Great to meet you!

I’m Yolaine Benjamin, MS, MSW, LCSW, and I’ve been providing mental health services via Telehealth for over six years, supporting adults who are seeking a comprehensive approach to managing their mental well-being. I practice active listening to better understand each client’s unique needs and offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where they can feel heard and valued.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is holistic and evidence-based. I work with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, phobias, grief, health concerns, and familial or life transitions. My approach integrates mindfulness and cognitive behavioral techniques to empower clients and support meaningful behavioral change.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect an holistic approach to mental health treatment with a warm and non-judgmental environment to share their stories. I aim to support and assist my clients to the best of my abilities and meet them where they are.
