About Yvonne
Yvonne King is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida with 18 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting concerns. Her manner is warm and respectful, and she aims to create a calm space for honest conversation.
Yvonne blends ideas from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, existential thinking, the Gottman Method, and mindfulness practices. She uses these approaches to understand how personal history, close relationships, and daily habits shape feelings and choices.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and down-to-earth, with attention to patterns that keep problems stuck. People come to her for help after loss, during big life changes, or when coping skills feel overwhelmed. She also addresses compassion fatigue, codependency, communication problems, and issues tied to family of origin.
Her focus includes intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, and finding purpose. In conversations she emphasizes listening first, then tailoring steps that fit each person’s goals. Techniques might include slowing down with mindful awareness, mapping relationship patterns, or reworking the stories people tell about themselves.
The aim is clearer thinking and kinder self-care, not quick fixes. Yvonne honors cultural differences and values each person’s story. For parents feeling stretched or people carrying grief and guilt, she offers steady support while helping them explore practical ways forward.

How attachment, mindfulness, and relationship work translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. It helps people notice patterns that affect trust and closeness, and then try different ways of relating that feel safer and more connected. Mindfulness Therapy centers on simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. It can help with anxiety, stress, and the heavy feelings that come with grief or burnout. The Gottman Method brings focused skills for relationship conversations and conflict management, using clear steps to improve communication and repair ruptures.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable. Together they will adjust methods over time, combining parts of different approaches when that fits the situation better.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skill practice, phone sessions can be easier with low bandwidth, live chat offers quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options let people fit therapy around work, parenting, and travel while keeping regular momentum toward their goals.
