About Yulia
Yulia Nesterenko is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life changes, and young adult issues. She also addresses addictions, trauma, grief, parenting concerns, and mood disorders.
Yulia has spent the last four years providing counseling in online settings, and she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. She uses a solution-focused approach when someone has a clear, practical problem that needs a plan. For people dealing with long-term low mood or loss of meaning, she may draw on existential ideas to explore purpose and motivation.
Sessions are described as collaborative and direct. Clients can expect to talk through specific problems, generate options, and try concrete steps between meetings. When issues are deeper, sessions can include longer conversations about values and what makes life feel meaningful.
Yulia also helps with attachment and communication problems, immigration and multicultural concerns, isolation or loneliness, and career or life-purpose questions. Her work includes coaching-style support for practical changes alongside traditional counseling.
She offers audio phone sessions as part of her practice. Before booking, users should confirm the current session options to make sure they match their needs.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort through feelings and goals and prefers a gentle, person-led pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions are linked. It is practical and works well for anxiety, mood problems, and situations where changing unhelpful thinking and behavior can bring relief.
Existential therapy explores meaning, values, and purpose. It can be useful for people who feel stuck, numb, or unsure about their direction in life and want to examine what gives life value.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to figure out what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying practical CBT exercises for a while, then shifting to deeper existential conversations if needed.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and having easier access when travel or schedule conflicts make in-person meetings hard. Yulia offers audio phone sessions; confirm any additional session formats before booking to know what will work best for you. Online sessions can be scheduled to match study, work, or other daily commitments without assuming a specific outcome.
