About Yvette

Yvette Dehn is a Maryland licensed clinician with an MD and LCPC and more than 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage depression, stress, and anxiety while supporting improvements in motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

Background and approach

Her practice also emphasizes practical coping skills for major life transitions and adapting to ongoing challenges. She brings substantial experience addressing relationship tensions, family conflict, and parenting concerns, drawing on the belief that each person carries inner strengths and resources.

Her style blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques with mindfulness, gratitude practices, and meaning-focused work to help clients reframe thinking patterns and build day-to-day coping strategies. While her approach is informed by Christian principles, she honors diverse belief systems and centers respect for each person’s worldview.

Clients can expect collaborative work aimed at empowering personal growth rather than prescribing a single path. Yvette seeks to help clients identify realistic goals and practical steps toward improved emotional balance, better communication, and greater resilience in the face of life’s challenges.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care and How They Help

Yvette draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach often focuses on practical exercises and skills that people can apply between sessions to reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, emphasizing empathic listening and collaboration so that clients feel heard and can build on their own strengths to solve problems and increase self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She treats the selection of techniques as a collaborative process, adapting methods to match a person's goals, preferences, and the specific challenges they bring to therapy rather than imposing a single model from the outset.

Online therapy with Yvette is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend regularly, use homework or skill-building between meetings, and maintain continuity of care while balancing life responsibilities.
