Yvonne Ricketts is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida who offers both face-to-face and virtual psychotherapy to children and adults. With 12 years of clinical experience, she draws on her academic background from Palm Beach Atlantic University, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Ministry and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology.
She brings experience from work in various community agencies and additional on-the-job training in multiple therapeutic approaches. She is skilled in the Trauma Outcome Process, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and a range of parenting interventions.
Ricketts holds credentials as a licensed mental health counselor in Florida, registered under MH12408, and maintains specific certifications in parenting skills education including Triple P - Level 4 Standard and Level 5 Pathways. She is also Prepare/Enrich certified to support couples preparing for marriage and to strengthen existing relationships. Described by her own practice as caring, empathic, and non-judgmental, she emphasizes cultural awareness and individualized care to help clients navigate life changes, grief, family conflict, parenting concerns, mood and attention difficulties, stress and anxiety, substance-related challenges, trauma and abuse, anger management, bipolar disorder, and relationship issues.
For many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions, online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care. Research and clinical experience support the value of virtual sessions for addressing these everyday mental health needs.
One major advantage is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that best suits their schedule and comfort level, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to maintain consistent care amid busy lives.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if a client feels a different approach or fit would be better, it is possible to switch therapists. For many people, the combination of evidence-based methods and flexible access makes online therapy a practical option for supporting mental health and coping with life changes.
