Yazmin Coleman, LISW, LCSW

Yazmin Coleman is a Licensed Independent Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in North Carolina. She has eight years of experience helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, anger, addiction, and trauma and abuse. Yazmin works with clients to build self-esteem, motivation, and coping skills for life changes.

Her style is person-centered and straightforward. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps that can be tried between meetings. She uses plain language and listens for strengths clients can use when situations feel overwhelming.

Yazmin draws from several approaches to match how someone prefers to work. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage emotions better, and motivational strategies to build lasting change. Mindfulness practices may be added to help with stress and grounding.

She also addresses concerns tied to family roles and parenting, attachment and abandonment issues, body image, grief, substance use, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Yazmin supports people processing life transitions, divorce and separation, and the ripple effects of caregiving and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules a first appointment according to the therapist's availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the client needs, helping them feel heard and understood. In online sessions this means time is spent building rapport and identifying concrete goals to work toward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to shift patterns that cause distress; it often includes homework between sessions to practice new skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that can be taught and practiced during remote sessions to manage intense feelings and reduce impulsive reactions.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try first and will adjust those choices based on progress, needs, and preferences. This is a flexible process that centers the client's goals.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the profile does not list specific formats. Ask about which online options are currently offered so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It also lets people use approaches like CBT worksheets or DBT skills practice during the regular rhythm of their week.
