I agree you could consider grooming her yourself. There are videos under Yorkie grooming talk here in Yorkietalk that show you how you can cut her hair.

Leroy is 5 months and I just groomed him this past weekend myself for the first time. I groomed him with a Wahl pet clipper and trimmer combo that I bought at target awhile back to trim the hair on his ears. I kept his hair on his head long and his body short, his legs I didn't do anything to except even them out with scissors since he doesn't have much hair on them.

I got him used to the trimmer since he was about 2 months old by putting the trimmer next to his face turned on but without cutting anything for a few seconds, gave him a treat and little by little increased the time each day. Then when I felt he felt better having the trimmer near him, I started trimming his ears about every week or every other week. If you want to groom her yourself start with something simple and short timed and then progress from there so she doesn't get scared.
