Getting to know Yolanda Frederick

I’m a Licensed Therapist and Certified Grief Informed Professional with over 18 years of experience providing therapy and community-based services to adolescents, adults, and families. I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, ages, and life experiences-and I approach every client with genuine respect, openness, and care. Clients often describe me as warm, trustworthy, accepting, and empathetic. I’m also a great listener who believes in fostering hope and healing through compassion and collaboration. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore what’s weighing on your heart and begin your journey toward feeling whole again. I help clients work through grief and loss, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, and communication barriers. My approach is person-centered, which means our sessions will focus on your unique experiences and goals. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reframe unhelpful thought patterns, along with trauma-informed interventions to support your emotional safety and healing.

What should a new client know about working with you?

During our initial intake session, could expect me to focus on building trust and an alliance to drive our therapeutic relationships, treatment goals, and outcomes. The initial session will allow me to ask questions about you, your current symptoms, and how you are currently coping. During subsequent sessions, I intend to provide concrete strategies and skills to promote improved self-awareness, and harness self-empowerment as you utilize techniques learned and practiced during sessions. Upon graduation from therapy treatment, you should see a decrease or elimination in your symptoms and be able to identify personal successes and emotional gains.

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.
