About Yovanna
Prof. Yovanna Martinez is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland with 25 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, anger, and relationship concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Her style is straightforward and practical. She uses conversational, client-centered work to listen to what is happening now. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify patterns of thought and behavior that make problems worse. Mindfulness and solution-focused methods appear in sessions when they help people build small, doable changes.
In practice she talks through what is making daily life harder. That can include sleep problems, caregiving strain, career stress, or the fallout from past trauma and abuse. When anger is part of the concern, she helps people understand triggers and develop coping steps that reduce reactivity and tension.
Martinez also supports people dealing with addiction, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and issues around identity and relationships. She will discuss goals, try concrete strategies, and check progress together. Her bilingual ability allows Spanish speakers to use the same approaches without translation.
People who choose her can expect practical conversation, structured tools, and a focus on next steps. To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building practical goals together. Online sessions use that same conversational approach to identify what is most pressing and what the client wants to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and adds concrete practice tasks and homework to break unhelpful patterns. That method is useful for anger, anxiety, sleep issues, and low mood because it targets what people do between sessions.The therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss options, try approaches that fit the client's goals, and adjust the plan based on how well tools and exercises are working. Clients and therapist set measurable steps and check progress together.
This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit around work, caregiving, or busy schedules because they avoid travel time and can be scheduled in shorter blocks when needed. Phone or lower-bandwidth options can make a quick check-in simpler, while video sessions allow for visual coaching on breathing and grounding practices. Online work makes it practical to use CBT exercises, mindfulness drills, and short skill-building tasks between meetings.
