Professional statement
Yourdeline Sertyl, LMHC, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over nine years of experience supporting adults through some of life's most challenging chapters. She works primarily with high-functioning individuals who appear to have it all together on the outside but are quietly struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, or the weight of constantly being the strong one for everyone else. Many of her clients are professionals, caregivers, and first or second-generation individuals navigating the intersection of personal ambition and cultural expectation.
Yourdeline's therapeutic approach is warm, structured, and deeply collaborative. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with person-centered principles to help clients understand the patterns driving their thoughts and behaviors — and develop practical tools for lasting change. Sessions are insight-driven but also action-oriented, meaning clients leave with more than just awareness; they leave with a clear sense of what to do differently. Yourdeline places particular emphasis on helping clients build self-trust, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with their own sense of worth.
As a therapist with Caribbean roots, Yourdeline brings a culturally attuned lens to her work. She understands firsthand how family dynamics, generational expectations, and cultural identity shape a person's inner world — and she creates space for all of that to be part of the conversation. Clients frequently describe her space as one where they finally feel understood without having to over-explain themselves.
Yourdeline is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor licensed in Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Georgia. She offers virtual therapy exclusively, with flexible weekday availability and some evening slots. Insurance is accepted for Massachusetts clients; clients in Florida, New Jersey, and Georgia are seen on a private pay basis. New clients are welcome and a free consultation is available to get started.
