About Yvonne

Yvonne Schilling is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 25 years of experience. She works with adults on common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and questions about identity. Her practice also covers concerns like sleep problems, self-esteem, career stress, and attention-related challenges such as ADHD.

Schilling often helps people who are dealing with family of origin issues and attachment questions that continue to affect their adult relationships. She also supports those facing abandonment, adoption and foster care related concerns, blended family matters, caregiving stress, and challenges tied to aging or serious illness. LGBT identity and intimacy-related issues are part of her regular caseload.

Her approach mixes practical strategies and reflective conversation. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to address thinking and behavior patterns. Emotion-focused work and attachment-based ideas help when relationships and closeness are the problem.

Sessions tend to focus on improving communication, managing strong emotions, and setting realistic steps for change. She encourages clear goals and skill building, such as coping tools for anxiety or routines to improve sleep. Work on self-understanding often includes examining the roles people learned in their family of origin.

Schilling blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with client-centered listening to help people clarify values and commit to meaningful action. For someone juggling work, family expectations, and emotional strain, her style aims to be straightforward and practical. To begin, prospective clients use the platform matching process and schedule an initial session.

How evidence-based approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and take action consistent with those values. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and life changes by teaching ways to notice thoughts without getting locked into them.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and conflict. It can be useful when family of origin issues or recurring relationship problems are present, helping people recognize and shift long-standing interaction styles.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which approaches to try. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs evolve.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel during workdays. Licensed professionals often use video or phone tools for remote appointments, and those practical arrangements are set up during the scheduling process.
