About Yeni

Yeni Then-Yaegel is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 28 years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family and parenting concerns, and self-esteem issues.

She has long experience working with a wide range of difficulties including abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant personality patterns, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She also addresses eating and food-related issues, feelings of emptiness, family of origin conflict, intellectual disability, isolation and loneliness, life purpose questions, midlife transitions, and obsessive-compulsive concerns.

Her approach uses practical therapy methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on clear strategies, problem solving, and small steps that can change daily routines and reactions. Conversations are straightforward and oriented to everyday life challenges like work, parenting, and family dynamics.

Yeni emphasizes an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can speak plainly about what is happening. She supports people in identifying specific problems and testing realistic changes. Progress often comes from trying different approaches and adjusting them to real-world demands.

She works with adults across the lifespan and brings years of hands-on experience to common life stresses. People who want concrete tools for anxiety, relationship strain, parenting struggles, or managing repetitive thoughts may find her approach practical and focused.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Yeni uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain anxiety or low mood. CBT sessions focus on specific problems, practical experiments, and steps that can be tried between meetings.

She also practices Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on identifying small, achievable goals and building on what already works. This approach is useful when the priority is clear short-term changes and practical problem solving for daily life and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Yeni will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. She and the client decide collaboratively which methods to try and adjust plans based on real-world results.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel, and allow quick check-ins during work breaks or between family commitments. Some formats also let clients choose shorter sessions when that helps manage time or energy. Ask about the available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire to pick what fits your routine.
