Yazmin Coleman, LISW, LCSW

Yazmin Coleman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, self-esteem, depression, addictions, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and grief. She also works with parenting challenges, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and life changes.

Her approach is client-centered and practical. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and steps that can be tried between meetings. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify thinking patterns, dialectical behavior therapy skills to manage intense emotions, and motivational interviewing to build momentum for change.

In conversation she listens for what feels most urgent and what’s getting in the way of progress. She helps people talk through communication problems, control issues, abandonment and attachment concerns, and the strain of blended family situations. Her work also addresses substance use, infidelity, guilt and shame, and struggles with emptiness or life purpose.

She combines short-term problem solving with longer-term skills training. That can look like breaking a problem into steps, testing a new behavior, or practicing emotion regulation and mindfulness exercises. She speaks English and Spanish, and draws on both clinical methods and everyday strategies her clients can use at home or work.

Sessions typically ask clients to set concrete goals and review progress regularly. To get started people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
