Greetings, My name is Yvonne Gordon. If you have reached my page, then you may going through a transitional season in your life. Sometimes within these seasons, we need someone to walk along side of us; someone to understand, listen, and help us to sort through the intertwined feeling and emotions. Some of these emotions may stem from our past, and some may stem from fears of the future; yet, both instances require the ability to rest and be present in the current moment in knowing that we are emotionally safe, and we are here now! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Christian Counselor with experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, grief, anger, family concerns, spirituality, suicidal ideation, and self-injury. I offer video telehealth sessions through Grow Therapy. Above all, my goal is to provide a safe, compassionate place to explore the deeper matters of the heart. I also support those seeking healing within their spiritual walk, and any damage and/or blockage that may have taken place along the road. I believe that healing is possible, despite the circumstances, and often involve us taking one step at a time as we enter into the darker regions of our heart. If you are ready to walk this path, I would love to support you one step at a time.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we’ll begin with simple introductions and create a comfortable space for you to settle in. I will invite you to share what has brought you to this point in your healing journey, what you’re hoping for, and what you feel you need right now. From there, I will ask a few open-ended questions to better understand your experiences and strengths as we develop realistic and doable treatment goals to work on together. This time will also allow you to see if this is a good fit for you, as you should always feel comfortable and confident that the environment is suitable for you—and it’s a beautiful thing to honor that.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I show up to this work exactly as I am—grounded, genuine, and present—and this creates space for my clients to do the same. I believe wholeheartedly that inner healing is possible, no matter what you have walked through or may still be facing. I believe the inner child can be restored, nurtured, and empowered as you journey through the deeper layers of your heart.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am passionate about working with adults and adolescents who have experienced various forms of trauma—those who no longer want to remain anchored in the past or overwhelmed by the future, but who long to learn, live, and fully thrive in the present. I’m here for individuals who feel “stuck” and are seeking the inner freedom that comes from stepping into healing, truth, and light.
Trauma-Focused CBT
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize, understand, and modify thought patterns that contribute to emotional or psychological distress.
Grief Therapy
I support individuals in grief by honoring both the pain and the love within their loss, creating space for remembrance, emotional processing, and gradual healing without rushing or minimizing your experience.
Psychodynamic
I incorporate a Psychodynamic Therapy approach to support clients in developing a deeper understanding of their emotions and internal processes. By exploring the underlying or “core” issues beneath current patterns, clients can gain clearer insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, allowing for more meaningful and lasting change.
Christian Counseling
I offer Christian Counseling grounded in the belief that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the Mighty Counselor, combining evidence-based tools with biblical wisdom to support emotional and spiritual healing.
Compassion Focused
My compassion-focused approach helps you understand your emotional patterns with gentleness rather than judgment, building self-kindness, resilience, and a secure internal foundation for healing.

She was very good at listening to me and relating to me on a personal level. I felt safe discussing things with her. She has a great personality and is full of loving empathy.
