About Kylie
Kylie Yacuzzo uses a client-centered approach to help people untangle everyday stress and anxious thoughts. She is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina with seven years of experience. Kylie focuses on practical steps people can try now to feel steadier and more confident.
Her sessions often mix client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. That means she listens first, then helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments to shift them.
Background and approach
She also draws on solution-focused ideas to set clear, achievable goals between sessions. Kylie works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and parenting strain. She also supports people facing career challenges, relationship stress, and life transitions.
Additional interests include ADHD, compassion fatigue, adoption and foster care issues, and body image. In conversation she aims to make therapy straightforward and practical. Sessions are collaborative - she helps clients identify their strengths and build on them.
People leave with specific tools to manage intense feelings, difficult conversations, or major changes. Kylie holds the North Carolina LCSW credential, NC LCSW C014535. She offers sessions in English and provides a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what matters most, and helps people clarify their goals. This approach is useful when someone needs a calm space to sort through feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. It often involves short practical exercises between sessions to reduce anxiety or lift low mood. Mindfulness-based work teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.
Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that suit the person’s goals, and adjust as progress is made. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools feel most useful.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face from different locations while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Chat and text-based options support shorter check-ins, tracking goals, or getting support when writing helps more than speaking. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and keep momentum between meetings.
