About Yelitza
Yelitza Gallimore is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship stress, parenting challenges, ADHD, eating concerns, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with trauma, dissociation, and LGBT-related concerns.
Her style is gentle and encouraging. She values each person's right to choose what feels right and asks clients to be active in building solutions. Sessions focus on practical skills and clear steps that clients can use between meetings.
Yelitza uses a mix of approaches to fit how each person processes information. That includes cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and client-centered work. She also draws on solution-focused and motivational strategies to set small, achievable goals.
She has experience supporting people recovering from toxic relationships and those handling family of origin issues and childhood trauma. She works with people who identify as neurodiverse or highly sensitive, and with those navigating identity-related stress.
Her practice can include somatic ideas and brief interventions aimed at shifting strong emotions and unhelpful beliefs. Sessions involve learning new skills, trying different perspectives, and making practical changes to daily life. The therapist invites people who are ready to take active steps toward change and supports a steady pace chosen by the client.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person's own decisions. It helps when someone needs space to sort values, set boundaries, or make choices without pressure.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and build new coping skills, which can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency patterns.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and stay present. It is useful for emotional overwhelm, stress, and managing strong urges or cravings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, habits, and how the client prefers to learn. That means trying an approach and adjusting it based on what helps most.
Confirm the current session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or keeping up regular appointments when schedules change. Some approaches translate well to video or phone work, while others focus on skills practiced between sessions; the therapist will discuss what will be most useful.
