About Yonetta
Yonetta Bloomfield is a licensed clinical social worker in New Jersey with five years of practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns in a calm, respectful manner.
Background and approach
She uses the Gottman Method alongside cognitive and behavioral approaches to help people improve communication and rebuild connection. Yonetta also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - and client-centered techniques to support practical change and emotional acceptance.
Sessions often center on clear goals. She helps people identify unhelpful patterns, try new ways of relating, and practice skills between meetings.
Her work addresses attachment worries, communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, and self-love, as well as men's and women's issues and seasonal affective disorder. Yonetta describes her style as nonjudging and empowering.
She focuses on creating a space where people feel heard and able to make small, steady changes. That can include building coping tools from dialectical behavior therapy when strong emotions feel overwhelming.
People who choose her can expect practical steps and steady support. She encourages straightforward conversation, skill practice, and setting achievable goals.
The aim is to help people feel more in control and move toward the life they want.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Yonetta uses the Gottman Method to focus on communication patterns and emotional connection in relationships. That approach often involves practical exercises and structured conversations that translate well to video sessions and phone check-ins.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, which helps people notice thoughts and act in line with their values. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and low mood and works well through guided exercises and brief between-session practices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Yonetta will talk through goals, try methods in session, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. The process is collaborative and paced to match each person’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited transport. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for relationship work and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill reminders, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, caregiving routines, or other commitments while still using evidence-informed methods.
