About Yvonne
Yvonne Oree is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She helps adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, and parenting strains. She also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, bipolar and mood disorders, and process addictions.
Her approach centers on practical, down-to-earth conversations. She uses client-centered methods and works from a strengths perspective. Sessions often focus on clearer thinking, manageable steps, and skills that fit into everyday life.
Yvonne draws on cognitive behavioral techniques when thoughts and behaviors keep someone stuck. She also uses mindfulness practices to help reduce reactivity and build attention to the present. Motivational interviewing appears when people face change related to addiction or health behaviors, helping them find personal reasons to shift patterns.
She describes her style as honest and straightforward. People can expect direct feedback, goal-focused work, and solution-oriented planning rather than lengthy theoretical discussion. The emphasis is on finding concrete ways to cope and move forward.
Her background includes long experience in both mental health and substance use concerns. That experience informs how she addresses overlapping issues like domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, and women's health concerns. Yvonne works in English and sees clients based in North Carolina.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Yvonne commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness during sessions. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors through small, practical experiments. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus in stressful moments. She also uses motivational interviewing when change feels difficult. This method helps people clarify their reasons for change and build motivation one step at a time. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. People often find that video or phone options let them attend from a quieter spot, or schedule brief sessions around work or childcare. Discuss format and scheduling during the matching process so sessions fit into everyday life.Areas of focus
