Yasmin Miranda, MD, LCPC, LMHC

Yasmin Miranda creates a relaxed, conversational space where people can speak honestly without feeling judged. She understands that beginning therapy can feel awkward or intimidating, so she intentionally avoids jargon and pressure to make sessions feel more like a real conversation than an interrogation. Many of the people she works with tend to hold things in, prioritize others, or worry they should have everything under control; her approach is designed to meet those concerns with warmth and straightforward support.

Yasmin has supported clients across a wide range of challenges, with special focus on relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, anger, and navigating major life changes. She regularly works with creative individuals who bring interests in books, film, or music into therapy, as well as teens and adults coping with low mood, stress, or family tension. She aims to be a therapist who feels like a real person rather than an impassive wall.

Her work blends practical skills coaching, clear feedback and outside perspective, and insight-oriented conversations that help clients connect patterns and shift unhelpful habits. Sessions are collaborative and focused on the client’s goals. Yasmin holds MD, LCPC, and LMHC credentials - MD indicates a medical doctor, LCPC is a licensed clinical professional counselor, and LMHC is a licensed mental health counselor - and brings 12 years of clinical experience to her practice. If she seems like a potential fit, prospective clients are invited to request an appointment.

Therapeutic Approaches That Work Well Online

Yasmin uses client-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help people explore feelings, clarify values, and discover their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to build practical skills for managing mood, anxiety, and stress. CBT often includes clear exercises and tools that translate easily to remote sessions. The Gottman Method is applied for couples work to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen relationship skills through evidence-informed exercises and shared goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Yasmin works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Yasmin offers flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit care into busy lives and to maintain continuity during transitions. These options support consistent, accessible work on relationships, trauma, coping skills, and life changes with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor their approach to each client.
