About Yanely
Yanely Grullon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Yanely also addresses grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating concerns, parenting stress, and career questions.
Her background includes work with immigrant and refugee communities, young students and professionals, and people of color. That experience shapes how she talks through acculturation, family of origin issues, and immigration-related concerns. She has supported people facing substance use, trauma, mood disorders, and complex family problems.
Yanely blends client-centered listening with evidence-informed tools like cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused techniques. She helps people notice patterns in thinking and behavior, test small changes, and build on the strengths they already have. Trauma-focused methods are used when past events are affecting present life.
In sessions she aims to be nonjudgmental and practical. Conversations focus on specific problems and what can be done differently. She works with clients to set short-term steps and track progress over time.
Her approach is straightforward. People meet to name the problem, practice new skills, and review how changes feel in daily life. Those seeking support are guided through scheduling and next steps in English or Spanish.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says. It helps build trust and clarifies what matters most to the client, useful for concerns like relationship stress and life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful habits. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes concrete goals and immediate steps. It helps people identify what works now and plan doable changes for issues such as stress, career moves, or parenting challenges.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit current needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is reviewed and new priorities emerge.
If you are considering online work, confirm the session options before booking. The therapist’s listed approaches transfer well to remote conversations because they rely on talk, skill practice, and planning. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Check the matching questionnaire and scheduling steps to find the session pattern that suits daily life.
