My counselor is great! She talks to me and understands my struggles. Yasmin is a comforting voice when I need it.

Reviewed January 2019

Yasmin has been an amazing resource in times of crisis. To stop and fully understand what is happening to me when I feel intense anxiety has been truly beneficial to me. I want to make changes for the better that are permanent, and that involves learning about myself and trying the things I had been avoiding. She is very attentive to what I say and quick to respond when I need guidance or just to verbalize somehow what I'm feeling.

More about Yasmin

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I know that living with depression, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties and other challenging experiences can make a person feel disconnected and alone. My focus is to provide my clients with a safe and healing therapeutic relationship where they can develop a deeper understanding of their troubles and feel empowered, with my guidance, to make lasting positive changes to their lives. My theoretical orientation is a mix of Cognitive-Behavioral, Mindfulness-Based, Person-Centered and Psychodynamic practices.

My experience in the mental health field includes work in a center for victims of violence, providing individual and group therapy at an inpatient/ outpatient psychiatric facility, and at a private practice providing therapy to adults, adolescents, couples and families.

I received a BA in Psychology and a MA in Mental Health Counseling from CUNY College of Staten Island. The program included concentrations in areas of grief and loss, addictions and career counseling. I have had additional training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Yasmin is great! She takes the time and effort to come up with different approaches to solve an issue, always making me feel more empowered and confident in myself. I'm finally starting to feel like I'm gaining control over my life, at my own pace, without being overwhelmed. She teaches me how to be realistic about my goals, not to overwhelm myself, yet not limit my imagination over what I could possibly achieve. Yasmin has given me more peace of mind and clarity to deal with depression, anxiety and low confidence.

Yasmin has been amazing in that she is able to really listen to what I am saying and find methods that I am comfortable with to address my issues. I have tried different psychologists, psychiatrists, and cognitive therapists and no one has truly heard what I had to say until I started working with her. I am very grateful for these sessions because in just a month I have been able to make many positive changes in my life.

Yasmin Botte has been extremely understanding and patient, and she has been able to lay out plans and strategies for me to work out my anxiety and get to a path for a new way of thinking that will help me with my low self esteem and insecurities. She has never made me feel unheard or insulted. She provides a very safe atmosphere where I feel like I'm getting actual help, and that I will get better. I'd recommend anyone who has low self esteem, insecurities, or anxiety issues to talk with Yasmin. It's only been a few weeks, but I now feel confident I'm going to see a day where my anxieties don't control me.
