About Yulando
Yulando Thornton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction, and workplace stress. She aims to make therapy practical and understandable for busy lives.
Her work begins by listening to each person's story. She uses Narrative Therapy to look at how events and beliefs shape identity. That helps people see new options and rewrite unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness practices. These approaches offer tools for handling painful thoughts, changing behaviors, and staying present in difficult moments. Sessions involve straightforward skills and real-life practice between meetings.
Yulando pays close attention to communication problems, mood disorders, and trauma and abuse histories. She helps people facing grief, intimacy issues, parenting stress, ADHD-related challenges, and substance use concerns. The focus is on small, measurable steps toward daily relief.
Her style is warm and direct. She works collaboratively and adapts techniques to each person's needs. People who want a therapist who listens, suggests concrete strategies, and honors personal background often feel supported by her approach.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Yulando directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and evidence-based methods work online
Yulando integrates Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. Narrative Therapy helps people tell and reframe their stories so painful events do not define them. That approach suits people who want to clarify values and change the stories that shape daily choices. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to values-driven action. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it pairs acceptance with practical steps to move forward.Finding the right approach happens together. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. Sessions are collaborative and may blend narrative work with ACT, CBT, or mindfulness techniques based on what helps in practice.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, and practicing skills between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
