About Yolanda Dunn

Greetings,

I am Yolanda, a North Carolina native (Go Tar Heels)! I relocated to Atlanta, GA to attend graduate school in 2011 and completley fell in love with the diversity of Atlanta. I am a lover of food, all things fitness, soulful R&B music, concerts, sports (specifically basketball-GO LAKERS), attending sporting events, spending time with family/friends, and finding new ways to make every day a little bit better than yesterday.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 5 years of experience assisting individuals struggling with a wide range of concerns such as work-life balance, adjustment issues, depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, and relationships issues. My treatment approach is typically cognitive behavioral therapy as the foundation and I also like to utilize client-centered therapy. I think it is imperative to empower individuals to reach their highest potential while assisting them to change those distorted thoughts. I truly value building rapport with my clients and learning all areas of their life. I provide a very safe to share, warm, trusting, and non judgmental environment. I understand that life can really deal us a tough hand of cards at times, but the beautiful thing about that hand is that YOU are in control of how it is played and I am here to assist and cheer you on along the way.

I look forward to connecting with you and assisting you on this journey to a better version of you.
