About Yanely
Yanely Grullon is a Pennsylvania Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression, parenting questions, and family matters she identifies as family of origin issues. She provides services in English and Spanish from her New York practice.
Yanely draws on approaches including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and practical steps that reduce current symptoms. She keeps conversations direct and goal-focused so people can use skills between meetings.
Her background includes work with immigrants, refugees, students, and professionals navigating cross-cultural adjustment and acculturation. She has experience addressing grief, caregiver stress, blended family concerns, communication problems, and issues like abandonment, infidelity, body image, and feelings of emptiness. That experience informs how she talks with people about family patterns and expectations.
In practice she helps people notice patterns that began in childhood and how those patterns show up now at work, in relationships, and in parenting. Therapy sessions commonly include skill practice, cognitive reframing, and concrete problem-solving. The pace and focus are set collaboratively based on immediate concerns.
For someone whose family history still shapes daily life, she offers straightforward tools and conversations aimed at clearer boundaries, improved communication, and better coping with change. To begin, clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person rather than pushing a fixed plan. It helps people feel heard and work out their own next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Yanely will discuss goals and preferences and collaborate on which methods to try first. Goals and techniques can shift as the work progresses so sessions stay relevant to what matters now.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises such as cognitive restructuring or brief solution-focused tasks to work well over distance.
