What should a new client know about working with you?

Kindly, CANCEL your zocdoc appointment within 24 hours if your insurance is not compatible with provider. Please assure to be responsive with communication with provider. PleasI am a non-pretentious therapist preferring a casual, easy and comfortable manner of interacting with my clients. The most important thing to me is that my client feel comfortable and trusting of my presence. I am committed to the best interest of my client and work collaboratively with clients. It's important for my clients to understand that psychotherapy is a process with no shortcuts and most of the work occurs out of the session. I accept clients as they are and hope that they understand that they have all that they need to succeed within themselves.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My typical process for working with my clients is listening with my heart, offering compassion, understanding and through various techniques and conversations (according to the situation and individual acceptance), assist clients in self discovery of their natures, talents, vulnerability and together face their challenges and provide skills, self realization and self empowerment to take control of their life and self manage their day to day existence.

    She was very dismissive about my concerns during our session and had an uncomfortably boastful attitude.

    Yamil is a joy to work with. She is positive and supportive, allowing you to direct the session while providing guidance. She is also very flexible and accommodating, which has helped me continue therapy with a busy work schedule.
    Yamil was very kind and understanding of my issues and actively listened to my problems. She made me aware of several underlying issues and also helped me tackle them one by one. She has a calming personality that is not often found in this field. I look forward to continuing to work with her.
    Yamil has been amazing throughout the entire time she has giving me therapy. She has been super attentive in my most difficult times. I felt her support and honest caring. She is always ready to listen without judgement and we clicked from the beginning. She is my first psychotherapist, and it has been eye opening all the help I have received. I have to stress how easy it was for me to open to her, which anyone with trauma knows its a very hard thing to do. I highly recommend her.
    Yamil is an amazing therapist! When I first had my consultation, her aurora was warm and welcoming. She listens to you and helps guide you through our own journey with the tools that are already within you. Yamil does not impose on you. She has so much great information to share and experience. I'm so excited on this journey of healing with Yamil! You would not go wrong in allowing Yamil to help you on your journey of healing traumas.
    Having tried a few therapy providers now, I would not hesitate to recommend Yamil as the top professional. She demonstrates a genuine care for her patients and has provided support in and out of sessions. Thank you, Yamil!
    Yami is very respectful and very understanding, and her knowledge is extensive. She makes me feel like she truly cares about me and my well-being.
    Yamil Sarabia is very knowledgeable of how the mind and body work. She helped me identify areas that were in my blind spot which allowed me to do the work. She's professional, personable and patient. I highly recommend her services. NB
    I initially didn't think that I needed therapy. I thought that it was a waste of time. Once the session started, the therapist made me feel comfortable. She made me feel as if she understood my situation. She was non judgemental and that was very important to me. I will definitely make another appointment with this therapist.
