TESTIMONIALS

I am grateful to each client who’s partnered with me in expanding their perspective, stories, themselves, their career development and/or their leadership opportunities. My heart smiles with every experience shared.

With much love always, Yari 🤍

Excellent qualified supervisor! I was fortunate to learn from Ms. Yari as she supervised both of my practicum/internship graduate program requirements and couldn't have asked for a better experience during those semesters. She's an excellent therapist, supervisor and overall human being that I am grateful to consider a mentor to this date, now as a licensed therapist myself. Highly recommend!

Yariela was an exceptional preceptor during my psychotherapy training. What stood out most was her skill with the Socratic method, rather than telling patients what patterns she noticed in their thinking or behavior, she asked precisely the right questions to guide them toward discovering those patterns themselves. Watching her sessions, I saw firsthand how much more powerful and lasting insight is when the patient arrives at it on their own, rather than being handed a conclusion. Her clinical intelligence and intellectual depth were evident in every session, she read the room, adapted her approach to each patient's pace, and never rushed the process of self-discovery. She modeled a kind of patience and precision that I'll carry into my own practice. I'm grateful for the chance to learn from her and would highly recommend her as a therapist, or supervisor/preceptor to anyone in the field.

The day I met Yari, I walked out of her office and said out loud “I found my therapist” and openly cried. She’s amazing

Yari has been my therapy since 2017. One of the hardest years of my life and she was there as a huge support system. I felt like I had no way out of my stresses and emotions but yari opened a door for me to learn how to deal with emotions, triggers and other challenges. I was able to heal with her by my side. She was always a message away and there for me at anytime. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist. She’s so understanding and patient. Never made me feel rushed! She even took times while she was busy with other tasks to speak to me. That says a lot about her investment in her clients. Yari holds a huge space in my life and I am here thriving and being my best self because of her healing abilities. Even though I graduated from her visits I still make time to see her when life feels a little heavy. I love her so much! I will always recommend her. I live in Orlando now and I still see her virtually when needed since I already graduated with her. She’s worth the time!!! Love you yari! Thank you my Yari! See you soon

I’ve been working with Yari for several years, and I genuinely can’t say enough good things about my experience. She has helped me through some of the most difficult periods of my life and has given me the support and tools to navigate things that once felt impossible. I’ve grown so much through the years not only in how I handle difficult situations, but also in how I understand myself and the relationship I have with myself. I feel like I’ve become stronger, more self-aware, and more confident in my ability to get through difficult things. She has always created a space where I feel heard, understood, and never judged. I’m incredibly grateful for the work we’ve done together and for the impact she has had on my life. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, thoughtful, and genuinely supportive therapist.

I’ve been to therapy many other times throughout middle school and high school, but I always thought i could never fully open up to those therapists. It was also especially difficult because I never felt these therapists tackled the root of my problems; however, when I turned 19 and decided to look for therapy again, Yari appeared, and like an angel, she guided me with open arms. I had a few sessions with her throughout my therapy journey, and they all felt welcoming and supportive. I also felt like she was also trying to help me fix the bits of myself that I had never explored from my childhood because of past trauma. She has an amazing calming energy, and I believe that anyone that is looking for counseling would have a great experience with her.

I remember the first day I went into Yari’s office and left her office with such a different perspective and such a positive attitude. I have been going to her for many years now. She is always there when you need her even when life gets busy. So easy to talk to and you feel as if she is a friend and not just your therapist. I will never change her. She is the best!

After so many years of trying different therapists Yariela was unique and made such an impact on my life that even years later I still utilize the things she taught me. My friends and family saw such a positive difference in me after therapy with her and she gave me the courage to improve myself. she truly changed my life for the better and I cannot be more grateful.

Yari is very easy to talk to and open up with. She is honest and has the gift of allowing you to see things in different perspectives. I started with her in a very difficult time in my life and saw me through to a more positive time. I highly recommend her counseling style and services!

After many years of playing tug-of-war with the idea of going to therapy, I took the plunge and found Yariela. She has helped me find peace and understanding of my environment. And has expanded my self-awareness in ways that I didn't realize ere possible! I have recommended Yariela to multiple of my close friends and if you're ready to start your journey, I recommend her to you too!

Yariela is such a blessing. She is patient and understanding, and extremely insightful. I love that she gives me assignments, and she also asks questions that help me to figure things out/see things differently. She is truly caring and uses a variety of approaches. I have grown so much since I began seeing her. Thank you so much, Yari!-- I am so grateful to have the opportunity to work with you!!! 🙂

After a little more than a year after my first session with Yari I can honestly say that I have come out a way better person to others and to myself than I was before. I have been to therapy before but Yari was so kind, patient, and understanding that I could not imagine myself seeing anyone else. We got to the source of my issues and she gave me the tools I needed to help heal wounds that I never thought could be healed. I am forever grateful for our time together and everything she has done for me.

There are no words to describe my time with Yari. She not only helped through the toughest time of my life but also taught me to never forget about yourself. I’ve worked with her for several years on and off and I will continue to do so. She creates a safe space for you to feel comfortable on day 1. Thank you and I am forever grateful.

So, I came seeking help with drug dependency. Wanted therapy but was a little hesitant inside about releasing a lot of things. Through our journey Yari has shown me and helped me discover a lot of underlying trauma and issues that affected me. She’s not one to just sit in front of and wait for magic words to answer all your problems. No! She provides you with the power and courage to reach in yourself and discover your pain and issues. She walks along you to the extent where you can understand what you need to deal with and heal from. It’s not something she just does for you, she teaches you how to do it for yourself. I’ve learned there’s lessons in the pain, healing in it. To come to her with so much wait weighing you down, to leave with strength to walk on further. She’s just AWESOME.

From our very first meeting I knew there was something special about her.This wasn’t my first time trying to work through my struggles but she gave off this sense of comfort and peace that allowed me to become completely honest with myself!! She guided me through past struggles in my life which in turn allowed me to heal, forgive myself and realize I didnt have to live in fear anymore. I strongly encourage you work with her and see life from a different perspective. This woman saved my life and I am forever greatful!

This wasn't my first experience with therapy but it absolutely was the best thus far. Yari always managed to get to the heart of the matter. She listened with empathy and responded with intentional questions that I often hadn't even considered. She was supportive and held me accountable. And she always provided an assignment for me to work on internally before the next session which kept me on track and continuing the work. I will be forever grateful to her.

What an amazing two sessions. Yari is really a blessing. From the very beginning, she was clear in explaining what would be taking place. I really appreciate her professionalism. She was so patient with me. I felt really safe and relaxed in expressing completely and without pressure. She allowed me to take my time in retrieving the information that my soul needed. More information resurfaced after each session. It was such a pleasure. I am so grateful. I will def recommend her to anyone looking for a past life regression.

Upon meeting Yariela there was never an awkwardness. She jumps right into solutions and helps you recognize exactly where to find the resolution. Very smooth and a natural in her field & experience. I came to her in a very broken down and vulnerable state. She worked diligently at walking me through my grieving process with sincerity and genuine concern for my mental wellbeing. For that I am grateful.

This was a great event. Ms. Sequeira did a great job facilitating and keeping the conversation going. While also providing us attendees with really good practical information about communication and where our communication type may stem from. I recommend attending the sessions.

I recently had an all girls vision board party and invited Yari to speak on mental health and well being. Yari transformed the energy and vibe in such a welcoming and soothing environment that left myself and my guest with a sense of light and empowerment. Yari can connect with clients in such a unique way that is hard to describe in words, you have to experience it yourself. Truly a master of her work.

I had the pleasure of having Yari work with me for a women’s circle a couple of years back and I immediately fell in love with her approach, delivery and the way she can deeply connect with both the individual and the crowd. With this among other experiences in mind, I decided to reach out to her about an employee appreciation event and I have to say that she was the highlight of the day. The team was left renewed and connected to their inner being and to each other as a group. Yari can incorporate different styles into her therapy, and she is swiftly able to transition through them in order to keep the entire team involved and engaged. Both my team and I were incredibly grateful for the time we got to spend with her, and the only complaint was that we wished it was longer. The two hours flew by!

This week, our JV team at PortMiami Cruise Terminal G held its third Mental Health Awareness stand down, highlighting that prioritizing mental health and removing stigma must remain a focus across our industry.

Once again, we were joined by Ms. Yari, LMHC, whose expertise and commitment continue to support meaningful progress in this space. Creating an environment where our workforce can engage in open dialogue around a topic that has long gone unaddressed in construction is a step forward for our industry.

We thank Ms. Yari for sharing her time and knowledge, and the project leadership team for prioritizing this effort and supporting the conversation on an active jobsite. Most importantly, we recognize every team member who participated, helping to advance a culture where mental health is discussed openly and supported.
