After having a career in the medical and academic fields, I went back to college to earn my MSW and LCSW. My focus was to develop the skills necessary to help people in my community. My mission is to give back to the community and to help those who need to overcome the paralyzing effects of depression, anxiety, and dysfunctional thinking rather caused by academic stress/change, a medical condition, relationship issues or life stresses. People suffering from depression, anxiety, panic, and OCD are often not only battling the disease but also its impact on their families. The impacts are great. The impact can be job loss or change, financial issues, marriage difficulties, or family dynamic shifts. Most patients have one or more of these impacts to deal with at the same time they are dealing with their condition. The combination can be very overwhelming and difficult to understand. My focus is to help my clients learn to cope with the new challenges of their condition. Together, we will explore the tools that can be used to learn to cope. I believe that together we can make a very difficult time easier

I believe my strongest asset is my ability to connect with others, as a therapist my goal is for us to build a connection together that allows trust, honesty, and communication to meet whatever your goals may be. I feel that therapy does not have to be the intense, Freudian, dissection of each thought that can be depicted in movies. Rather, that the best therapeutic experiences often involve a mixture of supported listening, active coping skill implementation and personal reflection. I utilize strengths-based approaches including ACT, CBT, DBT skills, and more, to create plans for growth that fit your unique needs and give you solutions and skills for everyday life.

Throughout life, we all experience some form of trauma, and I was no exception. Adversity often felt like my middle name. One of the most impactful influences in my teenage years was my school counselor, who truly “understood the misunderstood” and with whom I still keep in touch more than 25 years later. My passion for psychology has stayed strong throughout my life—whether evidence-based or holistic, I’m eager to learn it, apply it, and share it with others. I believe my purpose is to support people through both my knowledge and my personal experiences. I am grateful for the trust parents place in me to support their children and teens who feel unheard or misunderstood, as well as adults who feel lost or broken on their journey. Life is not always an easy path—but you don’t have to walk it alone. Let’s take the journey together.

It’s not uncommon to feel lost at times, especially when life feels like it's pulling you in all directions. If you’re looking to better understand yourself, your emotions, and the patterns that might be holding you back from living the life you want, I’m here to help. What I’ve learned in my years of therapy work is that lasting change only happens when there’s a genuine connection between client and therapist. That’s why I show up as my true, authentic self in every session. I create a space where you can feel safe, supported, and understood—no judgment, no pressure. Just a warm, inviting space for you to be yourself. I believe in being honest and transparent, which means I might gently challenge your perspectives and help you see where you might be getting in your own way. It’s not about criticism; it’s about growth, and I’ll always meet you with empathy and respect along the way. There may be times I fumble my words or forget what I am saying because I am human too. I understand that therapy can be intimidating or even awkward at times, and I embrace that with you. What matters is that we’re in this together. In our work together, you are in the driver's seat. You’ll guide us in the direction you want to go. Sometimes that will mean tackling external stressors like work, relationships, or family issues. Other times, it might mean diving into deeper, internal struggles—because often, once we work on strengthening our inner world, we can approach external challenges with more confidence and clarity. Whether you're looking to develop a healthier mindset, explore your emotions, or build more self-compassion, my focus will always be on supporting you as you take small, meaningful steps forward. We’ll celebrate even the smallest victories, because every win counts.

I’m really glad you’re considering therapy—it’s a powerful step toward understanding yourself and making positive changes. It’s completely normal to have questions or feel uncertain in the beginning. The most important part is that you’re open to exploring your thoughts and feelings in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I'm here to support you in whatever way is most helpful, whether that’s answering questions, helping you get started, or just listening. You don’t have to figure it all out at once—just taking this first step is already meaningful. My professional training and certifications include holistic counseling, trauma, cognitive, dialectical, internal family systems, somatic stabilization, neurobiology, and mindfulness interventions. I collaborate with individuals, both men and women, and focus on the four pillars of wellness: mind, body, spirit, and environment.

Hi! I'm Yadiel Munoz. I'm licensed in Florida with six years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients cope with depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. While everyone is unique, I've found that clients typically start making measurable progress after our four sessions together. My goal is to ensure that every client has the tools they need to be their best, and to reach a point where they no longer need me. I strive to create a positive environment where you feel safe to be your true self. I'm here as a trusted partner that you can confide in, but also as someone who will challenge you and help you grow.

During a 13-year career in industry working as an engineer, I became inspired through a steady variety of volunteer work helping others within my community. I returned to school and earned my Master of Social Work degree. Recognizing that our body actively participates in all of our life experiences, I completed my Massage Therapy Certification. As I continued to work with more people in therapy, I learned about a novel approach that I could use to bridge these two disciplines, and I became a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner. I am licensed as a Clinical Social Worker and I virtually assist folks living in Florida, North Carolina, and Massachusetts. For over 30 years I have worked with people within adolescent, adult, and elder populations, US military veterans, and folks in the LGBTQIA+ community. Many have struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, gender incongruence, mood disorders, psychosis, substance use disorders, grief and loss, and chronic pain and illness.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Massachusetts rather than a city like Boston?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Massachusetts from Springfield to Cape Cod! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Massachusetts.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
