Dr. Frances Yahia

Dr. Frances Yahia is a licensed mental health counselor with a PhD and more than 15 years in private practice. She works from Florida and speaks English and Spanish. Her work often addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Her background blends clinical care with teaching and writing. She has written books about the subconscious, inner child work, family relationships, romantic partnership dynamics, and spiritual journeys. She also leads workshops and retreats and teaches depth psychology at the college level. In sessions she combines practical conversation with reflective exercises drawn from spiritual psychology and related methods. She helps people notice patterns from early relationships and how these show up now. That might include looking at attachment issues, abandonment wounds, or problems with trust and communication. Dr. Yahia also supports people facing life transitions such as divorce, midlife shifts, caregiving strain, or health challenges. She addresses concerns about body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and financial stress in the context of a person’s broader life story. Her approach tends to be collaborative and exploratory. She draws on evidence-informed techniques while tailoring work to each person’s goals. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

Background and approach: In longer work she may integrate reflective practices, inner-child material, and relationship-focused conversation to help people change repeating patterns. Her teaching and retreat experience inform a style that blends direct talk with experiential elements. Over time she helps clients build clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and more coherent sense of purpose. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and prospective clients should confirm session formats before booking.

How therapeutic approaches and online work come together

Dr. Yahia often uses evidence-based techniques alongside spiritual psychology. One common approach she uses helps people identify early relationship patterns and how those patterns affect current interactions; this can help with attachment issues, trust, and communication. Another approach involves reflective and experiential exercises that access subconscious material and inner-child themes to help people understand recurring emotional reactions. Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Over a few sessions they’ll test methods and adjust the plan based on what helps the person make changes in daily life. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and keep continuity during life transitions. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to schedule around work or caregiving demands. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking so you know what works best for your routine.
