About Me


Yvonne Espinoza, CEP, is an Austin-based college counselor who counsels students in Austin and across the country, assisting each of her clients to be as competitive as possible to be accepted to college. In the 21+ years that Yvonne Espinoza has been a full-time college counselor, she has provided hundreds of students and families with increased access to pre-college opportunities, college admissions, and scholarships nationwide through her individualized approach to college advising.

Yvonne personally empowers each student to create a versatile profile of college opportunities through individualized research and assessment of opportunities that are an ideal fit for their unique college and career aspirations. She enjoys working individually with adolescents and helping each of them to further explore strengths, learn the skills to manage the college planning process, and to feel inspired throughout the college admissions journey.

​Yvonne's students often feel more confident, independent and informed by enlisting her services. Especially during this uncertain time, hiring a student-centered, experienced independent college counselor to navigate the college planning and admission process more comprehensively outside of school hours can help to increase opportunities and decrease stress for your student and family.

​You don't have to wait until senior year to work with Yvonne. There are so many ways to prepare for college in the 9th - 11th grades, and she works with clients to make sure they are using that time to best prepare to be successful in their college and career endeavors.
