Hello, thank you for making your mental health a priority! I look forward to working with you on your journey to healing, self-preservation and empowerment. Together we can!
My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.
Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.
I have been in the counseling field for over 30 years and practicing as a licensed counselor for the past 7 years. I have worked with a variety of populations to include children, adults and families. I'm a very genuine person that enjoy assisting others with developing the best version of themselves.
Janet is a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Masters Addiction Counselor, National Certified Addiction Counselor II, NC: Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist, International Clinical Certified Counselor, Supervisor, ICCS, NC/SC: Clinical Supervisor. and NC/SC: Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor/Supervisor.
She has worked over 20 years with the population who has Substance use issues, chronic homelessness, mental health, medical, and behavioral issues. In addition, I serve the Faith based community, Christian counseling.
She is currently working with adults, couples and families. However my qualifications are in the area of adolescents, and adults; individuals, couples and family counseling; population of HIV/AIDS, Substance Use, Mental Health, Veterans issues, College students, Employee Assistance, and Trauma clients. In supervision, she qualified to supervise LPCs in North Carolina and South Carolina, as well as, SUD: LCASs, and CCSs in North Carolina and CCSs and CADCs in South Carolina.
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to manage your emotions, relationships, work, family expectations, and everything else at the same time. You may look like you have it all together on the outside while internally feeling anxious, exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next.
I’m Yilian Herrera, a licensed mental health professional with 16 years of experience, who provides a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, understand what you’re experiencing, and begin making meaningful changes.
I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD-related challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship concerns, low self-worth, burnout, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or like they have spent a long time putting everyone else’s needs before their own.
My goal as your clinician is to help each client set their therapeutic goals and reach them. I am a second set of eyes here to help you during this journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Bluffton
Searching for therapists in Bluffton starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. Some profiles may mention methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, while others focus on populations, life stages, or specific concerns.
In a smaller city like Bluffton, local office options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas, so virtual therapy can expand your choices while keeping care accessible from home. You may also want to compare appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus, so you can make a more informed choice.
Therapy in Bluffton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, check your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
