About Kylie
Kylie Yacuzzo is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that shape how people feel. She uses a straightforward, person-focused style to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns. Kylie emphasizes strengths and practical steps people can use right away.
She approaches sessions with the idea that each person knows their story best. That belief guides gentle goal-setting and down-to-earth problem solving. Clients can expect guidance on motivation, confidence, and coping when life feels overwhelming.
Kylie draws on several evidence-informed methods to fit each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the person’s values and priorities. Mindfulness practices are used to manage tension in the moment.
Her work includes common life stressors such as relationship and parenting strain, career shifts, grief, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people navigating ADHD, attachment concerns, chronic illness, and body image issues. Kylie brings seven years of professional experience in North Carolina to her practice.
Sessions focus on practical tools and steady progress rather than labels or quick fixes. Kylie encourages small, sustainable changes that fit daily routines. To start, she asks people to identify a clear goal and then builds simple steps to reach it.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building goals based on what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and decide what change they want to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and everyday habits and uses small experiments to change reactions and mood. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust over time. This is a collaborative process where feedback shapes each session.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online counseling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so work or family breaks are easier to use. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and client-centered techniques to online settings to focus on practical steps and habit change.
