I have found that I prefer helping my clients remotely, through the use of the internet, and that it works just as well as in-person therapy. As an eclectic therapist, who uses evidence-based treatments, I help my clients examine their current life circumstance, particularly their thoughts, feelings, and reactions to stressful situations, and assist them to find ways to change their perspective, increase their ability to feel better, and enjoy their lives.

We are all searching for love, belonging, and worthiness, but it's not always simple to get those things. Anxiety is crippling, depressive thoughts are invasive and entrapping, relational conflict robs us of the connection we once celebrated, and grief seems to strip our lives of all of the above in one fell swoop. These challenges, intrinsic to the human experience, are not meant to be faced alone. If you're seeking connection, worthiness, belonging - if you're looking to find meaning in your story - the time to begin the work is now.

While balancing many roles in our lives, it's sometimes easy to get lost in the noise or develop negative coping skills. In doing so we sometimes have moments when we feel like we are not being heard, or that people do not understand us. Be Heard Counseling is a place for your voice to be heard, and for you to be understood as an individual free from any judgement or criticism.

I like working with people who are fed-up with their lives and can't seem to find a solution. It is at this point that people become willing to try something different after all what is there to lose? Therapy can be a life altering experience if you wish it to be! There is work to be done but you will be supported and empowered throughout the process. I am reminded often there are things we can't do alone that with another person's help become possible. Being inspired and motivated that there is hope is where the journey begins...

I am Yasmine Holbrook a Licensed Clinical Therapist. I have been married for 15 years and blessed with two energetic and adventurous boys. I also struggled with fertility and pregnancy. I had my first child at the age of 36 and it took me 10 years. During those 10 years I dealt with fibroids, failed IUIs, miscarriages, and three rounds of IVF, and depression. Looking back at those years I do wish I had the support and tools to deal with some of the emotions and feelings that I experienced. It was a lonely journey even though my husband was right there with me. I do not want you to feel alone through this difficult journey.

Tired of not being in control of your emotions? Tired of not feeling good enough or masking how you feel? Do you have a history of difficult interpersonal relationships, fear of abandonment, chronic feelings of emptiness, or impulsive behavior? If you answered yes to any of these, there is no need to feel ashamed. You have most likely experienced attachment injuries, trauma, invalidation, consistent messages that you are not good enough, not worthy of love or you may have come to blame yourself for most of the bad things that have happened to you or your loved ones.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist.

Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
