Yvonne Edwards Fernandez, LMFT
Specializes In:
Yvonne Fernandez, LMFT, helps individuals, couples, and families in South Carolina navigate life’s challenges with compassion and evidence-based care. She works closely with adults and seniors to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and significant life transitions. Whether supporting someone through grief, guiding partners toward healthier communication, or helping families strengthen their connections, she creates a safe and supportive environment where growth and healing can take place. Her work is deeply rooted in helping people manage anxiety, depression, and couples’ issues, as well as guiding clients through midlife and later-life transitions. Yvonne also provides support for women’s mental health and for those connected to adoption and foster care. She incorporates a tailored blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and family or couples counseling to meet the specific needs of each client. Yvonne is especially passionate about supporting individuals experiencing grief and major life changes. She understands that transitions—whether in relationships, family dynamics, or stages of life—can feel overwhelming, and she walks alongside her clients as they develop tools to cope, heal, and rediscover their strengths. This focus reflects her commitment to addressing the unique emotional needs of people facing loss, adjustment, and the uncertainties that come with significant change. Outside of her clinical work, she enjoys daily walks, spending time with family, and expressing her love of music by singing and playing hymns, gospel, and worship songs on her keyboard.
