Yolanda Adams-Johnson

Yolanda Adams-Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with eight years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with grief, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She also addresses related areas such as anger, motivation, and confidence when those issues affect day-to-day life.

Yolanda uses straightforward conversation to help people sort what matters most right now. She listens for the person’s goals and then uses practical steps to address mood, behavior, and coping. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client’s priorities and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and test new habits.

Sessions focus on clear problems and usable strategies. That might mean working on communication, managing caregiver stress, or responding to seasons of loss and grief. Yolanda also works with concerns such as body image, isolation, forgiveness, and addictive behaviors when they affect daily functioning.

Her approach treats the person’s experience as central. She aims to help clients notice what’s working, try small changes, and evaluate results. Sessions include talking, planning small tasks between meetings, and reviewing progress to refine the next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Yolanda uses Client-Centered Therapy which means conversations start from what matters most to the person. That approach helps when someone feels unsure about direction or purpose and wants the session to follow their priorities.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT is well suited to mood concerns, low motivation, grief-related rumination, and habits that get in the way of daily life.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Yolanda will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then recommend ways of working that fit those needs. She checks in on what helps and adjusts methods over time so the plan stays practical and relevant.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel time on workdays. The focus remains on clear goals, manageable tasks between sessions, and reviewing progress together.
