About Yasha

Yasha Carpentier is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Washington with 24 years of professional experience. She draws on a depth of clinical work helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, and the effects of trauma and abuse.

Background and approach

Her practice also addresses grief, eating concerns, parenting strains, self-esteem difficulties, depression, and coping with life changes, as well as compassion fatigue and ADHD. Yasha emphasizes creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings honestly.

She blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness and motivational techniques to tailor support to each person’s needs. Additional focus areas in her work include cancer and caregiver stress, communication problems, domestic violence, family of origin issues, hospice and end-of-life counseling, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and women’s issues.

Prospective clients who are ready to begin can expect a collaborative process that respects individual pace and goals. Yasha encourages taking the first step toward change and offers multiple session formats to fit different circumstances.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Yasha commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting thought and behavior patterns that contribute to emotional distress, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping during life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings, which can be useful for stress reduction, managing grief, and improving emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She works with clients to explore which methods align with their goals, preferences, and daily routines, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so treatment fits each person’s needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, caregiving, or mobility constraints while still engaging in structured therapeutic work with a licensed professional.
