About Yvonne

Yvonne Tejeda is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) who helps people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression. She writes plainly and listens closely so clients can speak honestly about what feels hard. She aims to create a calm, collaborative space where people can begin to change long-standing patterns.

Yvonne started as a talk therapist in 2005 and has worked in the field for 21 years. Over time she added body-focused work after seeing how trauma shows up physically. She integrates somatic techniques and gentle body awareness into sessions alongside talk therapy.

Her practice draws on attachment ideas, depth psychology, and work with ego structures to understand how relationships and early patterns shape reactions. She also brings training as a Hatha yoga teacher into the room to support nervous system regulation and groundedness.

Clients can expect practical tools for managing intense emotions, guidance for calming the body, and help noticing the patterns that keep problems repeating. She emphasizes steady, intuitive support and respects each person’s pace in therapy.

Yvonne practices in Texas and offers services in English. She accepts international clients and works with people who want help with issues like chronic pain, communication problems, dissociation, life transitions, and self-worth. To start, she asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

How somatic work and talk therapy translate online

Yvonne uses a blend of talk-based counseling and body-focused techniques to address stress, trauma, and anger. Talk therapy helps name patterns, feelings, and triggers so those moments become easier to notice and change. Somatic methods focus on body sensations and simple regulation exercises to reduce reactivity and ground the nervous system.

She also draws on attachment-informed work and depth-oriented ideas to unpack relational patterns that shape emotional responses. Those approaches help people understand why they react a certain way and build new ways of relating to themselves and others. Finding the right mix is collaborative - the therapist and client try methods, notice what helps, and adjust the plan together based on goals and comfort.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, avoid travel time, and keep continuity during transitions. They also allow for shorter check-ins or longer sessions when needed, depending on what the therapist offers. The focus remains helping clients manage anger and stress with practical, body-aware tools that fit daily routines.
