About Yesenia

Yesenia Torres is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and low self-esteem. She also supports people coping with life changes, panic attacks, communication problems, post-traumatic stress, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Yesenia works with practical goals and clear steps so conversations feel useful from the start.

She meets people where they are and listens first. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and move at a pace the client chooses.

Background and approach

Yesenia uses straightforward tools to reduce overwhelm and build stronger coping skills. Her style blends talk and skill-building. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on dialectical skills to manage strong emotions.

Mindfulness practices and motivational strategies are woven in when they fit the person’s goals. Yesenia has four years of professional experience as a licensed clinical social worker in California. She aims to make therapy a collaborative effort, adapting methods to each person’s needs rather than following a fixed formula.

People who reach out can expect short-term skill work alongside deeper conversation when it’s helpful. The focus is on practical changes - better coping, clearer communication, and small steps toward feeling more stable and confident.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead, building trust and helping people talk through what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and low self-esteem.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and the concerns they bring. Sessions can blend different approaches so the work feels relevant and effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging is useful for ongoing brief support between longer sessions. These formats help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain steady progress.
