More about Yvette

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Hello and welcome. You have taken a big step towards helping yourself. I hope that I have the privilege of working with you.

My name is Yvette Ramirez, MS, LPC. I started my counseling career working with clients that were diagnosed with bipolar disorder, major depression, schizophrenia, or schizo-affective disorder. I would visit client's in their homes and help them understand their diagnosis, teach them how to cope with symptoms, and teach the importance of medication adherence. I was promoted to the Integrated Care department where I practiced solution focused therapy with client's that had medical issues that exasperated their mental health issues, or vice versa. I was trained and certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in the State of Texas, and continue to utilize CBT in my practice today. I was promoted to a supervisory position for the Assertive Community Treatment Team and lead a team of 13 case managers, nurses, and LCDCs, which worked with clients that were high utilizers of the local mental health hospitals and were in crisis often. I was the lead counselor for the team as well, and was trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy to assist our client's with trauma they have endured and to teach them to challenge the negative thoughts they had about themselves in regard to that trauma. I worked in private practice at Step by Step Counseling and Alamo Heights Counseling, Inc. part time and expanded my counseling career. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprogramming to help those who have lived through a traumatic event that is causing distress in their lives, or clients that endure distress that they find difficult to handle. I now work full time in private practice and enjoy helping people like you every day reach their goals to feeling the best they can . I am person centered and listen to your needs and wants to help you get to where you are feel the most successful. Thank you so much for visiting my profile. I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Yvette seems to be very confident in her abilities. I am sure she will be able to help me figure out what to do with my situation.

Reviewed January 2022

Yvette was awesome. She helped me go from a history of depressed feelings and poor coping strategies to feeling liking I’m in control of my life. I’m happy and goofy again, I know how to set boundaries, I express myself how I want, I know to avoid unhelpful thinking styles, and best of all I feel like I have a mini version of Yvette in my head when I start to face life’s challenges. Yvette listened to me and my needs and was patient with me. I truly feel like working through things in therapy with Yvette was probably one of the best or the best things I’ve ever done in my entire life. Thanks for everything Yvette.

I have made a lot of progress in a short amount of time. I feel confident in my seasons and that they are helping me reach all of my mental health goals.

Yvette has really helped me through EMDR to find balanced thoughts. It’s wild because I thought I was getting on pretty ok and I didn’t realize how much more there was to unearth to properly heal from.

Reviewed December 2022

I worked with Yvette for about two years, and in that time she has helped me immensely. Her guidance through EMDR therapy has helped me process many underlying issues and traumatic experiences; in that process, I have gained valuable insights and the ability to challenge and let go of untrue beliefs about myself. Through therapy with Yvette, she has empowered me to take steps to improve my relationship with my spouse and reflect on what I really want out of my career. She has held my hand as I navigated multiple life changes including moving, quitting a job, losing another job, and finding sustainable work that fits my strengths and passions. I feel more centered and present because of her. She is experienced, professional, and really cares about her clients.

Yvette is fantastic

Reviewed November 2022

Yvette is the second therapist I’ve seen and she is wonderful, takes the time to listen and cares genuinely. She has provided me tools to cope with life in addition to past trauma, depression and anxiety. Therapy is not fun but she helps me stay complaint and is flexible with scheduling. I’m grateful to see Yvette, truly she has changed my life for the better.

Reviewed September 2022

My company stopped paying for our subscriptions and I cannot afford this since I see a psychiatrist. Yvette did help me tremendously with coping strategies to deal with my mental issues between doctor visits. I’m hating not being able to see her anymore. If you have a choice, see her. You won’t be disappointed.

I truly don't know where I would be without Yvette. Don't know and don't want to know! I've had plenty of therapists in my life - good and not so good - and Yvette is hands down the best.

Reviewed April 2022

I have only met with Yvette twice and chatted on the app several times. I am having a great experience. I felt that my last therapist did not really get me or my needs and it seemed like I was just talking and talking but not leaving with strategies. Yvette is the complete opposite. Every time we meet, I have received strategies and tools to use in my day to day life. I know I have only scratched the surface on what she has to offer. I would recommend her.
