About Yvonne

Yvonne Solomon brings three decades of clinical experience to her counseling practice in North Carolina.

Background and approach

She blends practical, goal-focused methods with an empathic, client-centered stance, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help clients identify patterns, test new ways of thinking, and build sustainable skills for daily life.

Yvonne holds the LCMHC credential and has worked across a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, and stress-related challenges. Her practice also addresses more specific areas like ADHD, bipolar and mood disorders, panic attacks, parenting and fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, and problems with communication, isolation, and life purpose.

Yvonne favors collaborative work with people who are ready to engage in change and problem-solving; she uses solution-focused and trauma-informed techniques when appropriate to help clients move forward. With a longstanding commitment to client progress, she emphasizes practical strategies and a respectful therapeutic relationship to support meaningful change.

Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online

Yvonne commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her online practice. CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood-related concerns. Motivational Interviewing supports ambivalence and enhances personal motivation for change, often helping people who are working on addictions, lifestyle shifts, or difficult decisions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and needs. That collaborative process helps shape session focus, pacing, and the skills emphasized in treatment.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from wherever they are in North Carolina.
