Individual Counseling
When you make the decision to make a change in yourself, you make a decision to look at the whole picture. I work with my clients to dig deep into their lifestyle to gain insight into their habits and choices that have led them to their current circumstances. Accepting personal responsibility is key to propelling clients to enjoy the life they have always wanted.
Women’s Empowerment Counseling
Inspired by her work with Suits, Stilettos and Lipstick Foundation, she is committed to working with women to empower them to be more assertive, less critical of themselves and finding balance in their lives. Many women can relate to setting high standards on themselves and then being disappointed when they do not live up to them. We often feel torn between the many different facets of our lives and still feel that we are not doing enough. Yvonne can help you take control over these feelings and help you live a life you are passionate about.
LGBTQ+ Community
Yvonne provides a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for the LGBTQ+ community. Here you will be able to explore your identity and relationships,find support in accepting and loving who you are (even if family and friends do not) and become empowered even in the face of discrimination. Yvonne also provides couples counseling, adoption and fertility counseling for the LGBTQ+ community.
Online Therapy
Our office is virtual, allowing our clients more flexibility in scheduling their appointments. Telehealth alleviates stress over having to drive to another appointment, deal with traffic and concerns over running late.

Speaking
One of the most amazing aspects of myself that I discovered on my journey through my professional career is that I love the microphone, and the microphone loves me! I have been a guest on the Dr. Elizabeth King show as well as the Lipstick Attitude Facebook live show. I have presented for the county of Palm Beach, Business Networking International, The Make a Wish Foundation and the Broward County School Board. However, I am most recognized for moderating “The Men in the Hot Seat” panel for the Suits, Stilettos and Lipstick Conferences. I am known for my off the cuff remarks and humor while delivering powerful tidbits of information. I am available to speak at your events, but fair warning: my style has some edge.
