About Yvette
Yvette Dehn is a Maryland-based licensed clinician with more than 15 years of practice. She focuses on common struggles such as depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Parents who are worried about family tensions or parenting challenges will find practical conversation and clear next steps.

Background and approach
Yvette combines talk-based work with practical skills so clients leave with things to try between sessions. Her clinical approach blends cognitive behavioral methods with client-centered listening and emotion-focused techniques. She also brings existential ideas about meaning and draws on Imago ideas for improving connection and communication.
This mix is used to tailor the work to what a person needs in the moment. Yvette notes that her practice is informed by Christian principles while honoring diverse beliefs. That means she will respect your perspective and work toward goals you set.
She emphasizes collaboration and helps people identify small, realistic steps toward change. Sessions are offered in English and organized around what will help a person most. People can expect a straightforward, respectful tone and a focus on usable tools for coping and relationship improvement.

Approaches and online options for busy parents
Yvette draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people recognize unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety or low mood. That approach breaks problems into manageable steps and offers practical tools for day-to-day life.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to improve how people understand and respond to feelings in close relationships. EFT helps individuals learn new ways to connect and repair repeated interaction patterns that create conflict.
Finding the right approach is treated as a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments as the work progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and chat or messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy family schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
