About Yanick
Yanick Raymond is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Virginia who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She focuses on practical steps that make everyday life feel more manageable. Her work often addresses communication problems, isolation, panic, and issues around guilt and self-worth.
Clients can expect a straightforward, compassionate style. Sessions emphasize listening first, then finding small, workable changes. She pays attention to cultural background and how identity shapes what a person is facing. The tone is warm and direct rather than overly clinical.
Yanick uses tools from Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s lead and build on their strengths. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active and to test new responses. These approaches are used together to create concrete steps toward feeling better.
She has eight years of practice and brings that experience to everyday concerns like panic attacks, social anxiety, and trouble connecting with others. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelm and increase a person’s sense of agency through clear skills and problem-solving.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following a person's lead, offering empathic listening, and building on strengths. Online sessions using this approach let people talk through what matters most and shape goals at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings and introduces practical exercises to change patterns. CBT works well for panic, social anxiety, and recurring worries because it trains new skills and coping techniques.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yanick will collaborate with each person to decide whether Client-Centered methods, CBT, or a mix best fits their needs and preferences. She checks in regularly about progress and adjusts methods to match goals and comfort level.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so readers should confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, cut out travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. It can also make practicing CBT exercises between meetings simpler, since tools and worksheets can be shared and reviewed together. Overall, online work aims to blend practical skill-building with supportive listening so therapy can fit into real life.
