About Yadilis
Yadilis Hernandez Rodriguez is a Florida licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and coping with life changes, and lists guilt and shame among her focus areas.
She uses several evidence-based approaches in session, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and elements of the Gottman Method. Conversations are practical and focused on what is happening now and what can be changed next.
In early sessions she helps people name the issues that matter most to them and sets straightforward goals. She adapts how she talks and plans treatment to fit each person's needs, working at a pace that feels manageable. She pays attention to how past experiences - for example, attachment wounds or abandonment - keep showing up in daily life.
Sessions may include learning specific coping skills, trying new ways to respond to painful thoughts, and practicing small behavior changes between meetings. She also addresses topics such as body image, communication problems, forgiveness, immigration stress, isolation, and life purpose when they are getting in the way.
Her approach combines mindful awareness with concrete strategies. The emphasis is on clear steps people can try, and feedback about what is and isn't working. For someone carrying guilt or shame, she offers focused, steady work to look at those feelings and how they affect choices.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values rather than getting stuck in shame or guilt. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to change how someone feels. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings become overwhelming.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to consider their goals, what has or hasn't helped before, and daily demands. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels useful and doable.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during the day, or letting someone choose whether to use video or audio when that suits them. Online work still centers on practicing skills between meetings and checking how changes are progressing.
