About Kylie

Kylie Yacuzzo is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and life transitions like midlife change. She frames clients as experts on their own stories and focuses on building confidence and motivation. Kylie speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone ready to try therapy.

Kylie uses a collaborative, supportive style that centers each person's strengths. She often helps clients name what feels stuck and try small, practical changes that can shift daily routines and thinking. Sessions include talking through recent challenges, practicing new ways to cope, and setting clear, achievable goals.

Her background includes seven years of professional experience working with issues such as depression, grief, ADHD, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and workplace stress. She also addresses concerns like attachment struggles, body image, blended family dynamics, and chronic illness impacts. That range informs a flexible approach tailored to the concern at hand.

Kylie draws on several therapy methods, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. She adapts these tools to each person’s pace and priorities rather than using a rigid method.

People who choose her often want clear steps and steady support while they build confidence and cope with change. Kylie encourages practical work between sessions and focuses on skills that help with everyday life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist reflects feelings, highlights strengths, and helps people find their own solutions to stress, relationship problems, or life transitions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying new ways of thinking, and practicing small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. It can help with rumination, stress, and increasing awareness of bodily signals during periods of change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kylie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on what proves most helpful in their day-to-day life.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. It can also help people try mindfulness or CBT homework between appointments without changing their routine.
