Great to meet you!

Are you looking for a dedicated partner to help navigate the weight of anxiety, chronic illness, or life’s biggest transitions? I’m Yolanda Patton, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Los Angeles, and I specialize in interpersonal trauma and grief. My goal is to move you from feeling isolated to feeling empowered with practical, solution-oriented tools tailored to your unique journey. Together, we will build a path forward that honors your experiences while focusing on your healing and growth. Reach out today—let’s start this work together.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that your mind, body, and soul are deeply interconnected. Drawing from my extensive background in cancer care and hospice support, I focus on "whole-person" healing that goes beyond just managing symptoms. We will work directly to identify how your internal thoughts influence your daily actions, using a solution-oriented model to foster genuine growth. Whether you are navigating a medical crisis or seeking deeper self-understanding, I am here to help you tap into your innate strength and find a clear path forward.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming space where your feelings and experiences are fully validated. We’ll move directly into identifying your goals, focusing on empowering you with the tools to build lasting resilience. My approach is solution-oriented; while we honor that healing takes time, we will work together from day one to cultivate hope and a clear sense of well-being. You aren’t just gaining a therapist; you’re gaining a dedicated partner to walk alongside you as you rediscover your inner strength.
