About Dr. Yolanda McDade

Dr. Yolanda McDade is a Mississippi-licensed counselor with 30 years of professional experience. She holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, and brings a long history of helping people manage stress and anxiety, address eating concerns, navigate anger management, boost motivation, and build self-esteem and confidence.

Her therapeutic philosophy rests on the conviction that clients possess significant potential for change and growth. Therapy is aimed at helping individuals recognize and release that potential so they can make meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Clinically, Dr. McDade combines Cognitive Behavioral and solution-focused approaches, placing emphasis on shifting both thought patterns and behaviors. The cognitive behavioral component involves close attention to what a person does and thinks, then promoting adjustments that lead to more positive experiences. The solution-focused element draws on existing resources and skills to help clients create practical steps toward their personal goals.

She views each person as the expert of their own story and highlights the strengths people already have to meet and overcome challenges. She also acknowledges that beginning therapy requires courage and honors the effort involved in taking that first step.

One of the clearest advantages is flexibility. Clients can connect in the way that fits their life and comfort level through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety of options makes it easier to keep therapy consistent alongside work, family, and other obligations.

Licensed professionals provide care in these formats, and clients who do not feel the right fit with a particular therapist can switch to find a better match. For many people, remote sessions offer a practical and effective path to support and progress with therapy.
