About Ylan
Ylan Hunt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with 10 years of professional experience. She helps people manage trauma and abuse, grief and loss, self-esteem and motivation, career difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Her work is practical and direct, aimed at everyday problems that interfere with work, family, and health.
She focuses on breaking down problems into small, manageable steps. Sessions often center on concrete coping skills, sharper problem-solving, and planning next steps for work or personal life. She listens for strengths the client already has and builds on those abilities instead of starting from scratch.
Her approach is collaborative. She talks with clients about what is and isn’t working and adjusts methods based on feedback. This can include working through difficult memories, managing stress symptoms, or setting realistic goals for career or relationships.
She has a background of ten years in clinical social work across settings that include grief, trauma, and caregiver stress. As an LCSW she brings knowledge of community resources and practical supports that match each client’s life circumstances.
Sessions aim to reduce immediate distress and create clear next steps. Clients who need help with chronic health concerns, substance use, veteran issues, or end-of-life planning can address those topics in focused sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first meeting to set goals and priorities.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Many evidence-based techniques focus on skills you can practice between meetings. For example, trauma-focused work often involves gradual processing of difficult memories and learning grounding practices to reduce distress. These steps aim to make strong emotions easier to manage day to day.Behavioral strategies and structured problem-solving are another common approach. This involves setting small goals, testing what works, and adjusting plans based on results. It is useful for career problems, motivation, and rebuilding confidence after setbacks.
Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to figure out which approaches fit current needs, goals, and life circumstances. Sessions are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or longer sessions when more time is available. It also allows people to continue consistent care when travel or work schedules change. Licensed professionals can help plan a practical schedule that aligns with daily responsibilities.
