About Yanlin
Yanlin Tso is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with nine years of experience. Yanlin works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, LGBT issues, relationship difficulties, grief, addiction, and family of origin issues. Sessions emphasize strengths and practical coping skills rather than labels or judgement.
Yanlin uses a person-centered approach that starts with building a trusting therapeutic relationship. Clients are invited to describe what matters to them and the therapist helps identify existing strengths to use toward change. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques are commonly used to help people notice unhelpful patterns and take steps aligned with their values.
Somatic methods are used when bodily experience is part of the problem, helping people bring attention to physical sensations and learn regulation skills. Motivational Interviewing is brought in when people want help sorting out mixed feelings or building momentum for change. These approaches are combined based on what an individual needs in the moment.
Yanlin has worked across diverse settings with people facing discrimination, life changes, and neurodivergent concerns. The practice aims to recognize cultural differences and reduce stigma while focusing on practical strategies for daily life. Clients who are navigating identity questions, communication problems, or commitment concerns may find this style useful.
People considering therapy are encouraged to think about specific goals before scheduling. The first sessions usually clarify priorities and identify manageable steps to practice between meetings. Yanlin accepts international clients and conducts work in English.
Approaches used online and how they help
ACT supports noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that reflect what matters to the person. It can help with anxiety, life transitions, and problems that keep repeating from family patterns.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's perspective and builds on their strengths. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps the client clarify goals and next steps in everyday terms.
Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. It is often useful for stress, anger, and coping with strong emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Yanlin will collaborate to figure out which methods fit a client's goals, needs, and personal preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
