Getting to know Yasmin PottsThomas

My path into this work is deeply personal. I grew up witnessing how mental health challenges can be misunderstood and stigmatized, and how a lack of access to quality care can prolong suffering. That experience shaped my commitment to creating a space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported without judgment. I approach therapy with a focus on understanding how past experiences inform present patterns, while helping clients navigate emotional distress in more manageable and empowering ways. My background includes work in a mental health clinic providing individual, child, and family counseling, as well as crisis support through the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, where I developed skills in supporting individuals during their most vulnerable moments. I am trained in evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and trauma-focused therapy, and I integrate these approaches to support meaningful, lasting change

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
