Yasmin Miranda, LCPC, LMHC

Yasmin Miranda is a licensed clinician with twelve years of experience helping people work through relationship strain, family tension, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She keeps sessions conversational and straightforward so people who feel nervous about therapy can relax and be honest. Her approach aims to make therapy feel like a real talk, not an interrogation, and she avoids clinical jargon. Yasmin often meets people who put others first, bottle things up, or feel they should have everything together. She helps them name patterns and try small, practical steps that change day-to-day life. Conversations blend skill teaching, honest feedback, and reflective work to uncover how past experiences shape present behavior. Her work includes support for sexual concerns such as sexual dysfunction, as well as issues like abandonment, attachment, communication problems, and infidelity. She also addresses substance concerns, anger, money stress, gender dysphoria, and guilt or shame. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to the person’s goals and values. Yasmin uses a mix of approaches. She draws from client-centered methods to keep the focus on the person, cognitive behavioral strategies for concrete skill-building, and psychodynamic and narrative ideas to trace deeper patterns. The Gottman Method informs her work around relationship communication and repair. People who prefer a warm, down-to-earth clinician who balances practical tools with deeper insight may find her style fitting. If the tone of therapy matters as much as the work, Yasmin aims to combine real conversation with purposeful change.

How certain approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person’s lead to build trust and clarity; online sessions let those conversations continue when meeting in person is harder. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills and brief experiments to change thoughts and behaviors; it adapts well to remote work because homework, worksheets, and step-by-step practice can be reviewed together. The Gottman Method offers structured tools for improving communication and conflict habits in relationships and can be used remotely to practice skills with a therapist’s guidance.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods match a person’s goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. Together they’ll try approaches and adjust based on what helps most.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In practice, online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to use shared digital materials, like worksheets and session summaries, to support progress between appointments.
