Yvette Howes

Navigating identity, relationships, life transitions, or the experience of feeling different from those around you can feel overwhelming at times. I work with neurodivergent individuals, LGBTQ+ clients, and women navigating major transitions related to identity, relationships, motherhood, and emotional well-being. You may be struggling with anxiety, masking, burnout, self-acceptance, sensory overwhelm, or the pressure of trying to meet expectations that do not fully fit who you are. I also support individuals seeking gender-affirming care and women navigating maternal mental health, pregnancy, postpartum changes, and the emotional adjustments that can come with these experiences.

My approach is affirming, collaborative, and grounded in creating a space where you feel safe showing up as your full self. Together, we work on understanding patterns, managing stress and emotions, building self-trust, and developing coping strategies that feel supportive and sustainable for your life. I believe therapy should honor your identity, lived experiences, and personal values while helping you move toward greater balance, connection, and confidence.

Many of the clients I work with come to therapy feeling misunderstood, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves after spending so much energy trying to adapt or hold everything together. You do not have to navigate these experiences alone. My goal is to provide a compassionate and supportive environment where you can feel understood, process life’s challenges at your own pace, and move forward with greater clarity, authenticity, and self-acceptance.
