About Sueann
Sueann Yahne is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 25 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, parenting challenges, and navigating life changes. Sueann focuses on helping clients who feel stuck after separation or divorce and those trying to manage ongoing family tensions.
She frames clients as the experts on their own stories and helps them notice strengths they may have missed. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps anyone can try next, rather than abstract theories. The work often looks like naming patterns, practicing clearer communication, and testing small changes to see what helps.
Sueann has supported people coping with attachment concerns, codependency patterns, and communication or control issues. She also has experience with matters linked to infidelity, guilt and shame, and fatherhood issues. Her background includes helping people who face domestic violence, family of origin difficulties, and adjusting after divorce or separation.
Across sessions she pays attention to how past relationships affect current choices. Clients get help identifying habits that keep them stuck and learning different ways to set boundaries or speak up. Practical problem-solving and steady follow-through are common themes in her work.
Sessions are offered in English and based in California. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based techniques often used in Sueann's work include clear behavioral strategies and attachment-focused thinking. Behavioral strategies break problems into small steps and try practical changes to daily routines; these help with anxiety, stress, and creating new habits. Attachment-focused thinking looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand why they react the way they do in close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist and client will talk about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. Together they decide whether to focus on changing daily habits, addressing attachment patterns, or a mix of both, and they adjust the plan as needed.
The practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the biography did not list specific session types, confirm the exact online formats available before booking. Knowing the offered formats makes it easier to plan around work breaks, quieter times, or short check-ins when that is preferable.
