Dorian Yates, LCSW

Dorian Yates, LCSW

Psychotherapist
FL
Hi, there! I’m glad you’re here. My focus is on creating a space where you can be yourself without any pressure. I'm Dorian, an LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) from Florida with 11 years of experience in my field. Life can get complicated, and I’m here to help you sort through it in a way that feels natural, real, and most importantly - doable. I like to keep things down-to-earth, using a mix of understanding and a bit of humor to make the process comfortable. We’ll work together on what matters to you, at your own pace. I can promise authenticity in our sessions and am open to sharing when it's helpful. I was born an empath with a sensitive soul, and I can’t shake the suspicion that in addition to sugar and spice, I got a sprinkle of ADD and a pinch of anxiety. While not always quite convenient (for things like... school, work, *chores!*), I do believe that this familiarity helps me in this therapist role. Silver linings! Also, I suppose it is only fair to disclose that I do have another secret weapon: a most trusted, capable, and intuitive peer and associate. His name is Popeye, and notably, he is a terrier of the Boston variety. And yes, he too is bound by HIPAW (sorry) I know how tricky it can get out there and I bet that with our powers combined, we can figure this out. Please know that you can always shoot me a message if you have any questions, comments, concerns - whether it be about myself, my approach, Popeye, or just this process in general!
