About Yesenia
LCSW in California with four years of clinical experience, Yesenia Torres helps people address stress, anxiety, depression, anger, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on communication problems, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, life purpose, and building self-love. Yesenia offers practical, talk-based support and draws on several therapeutic methods to guide sessions.
Sessions start with listening to what matters most to the person seeking help. She uses clear questions and reflective listening so people can sort through their thoughts and feelings. Early meetings often include setting short-term goals and trying small skills between sessions to notice what helps.
Yesenia integrates Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the person's perspective and to shape the work around their concerns. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation. Mindfulness techniques and Motivational Interviewing appear when motivation or present-moment awareness are central to the work.
Her style is direct and practical. Sessions focus on problem-solving, emotion regulation skills, and improving communication. Homework or brief practice tasks are offered when they support progress, and these are discussed in follow-up meetings.
Yesenia practices in California and conducts sessions in English. She does not accept international clients. Fees vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Yesenia commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person’s own perspective and letting that guide session topics and pacing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves identifying thought patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to test what helps with anxiety or low mood.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotional regulation is a central concern. DBT skills teach specific techniques for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can be practiced in session and reviewed for real-life use.
Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative. The therapist will ask about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then recommend methods to try. The plan can change as you learn together and notice what helps.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to plan a format and schedule that fit daily routines.
