About Kylie

Kylie Yacuzzo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, self-esteem concerns, and other life changes. Kylie also lists codependency and ADHD among her focus areas and supports people navigating parenting, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

She centers her work on the person’s strengths and perspective. Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and practical steps the client can use between meetings. Kylie uses tools from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral approaches to notice patterns and try different responses.

Mindfulness practices and solution-focused techniques appear in her approach when clients want strategies for managing strong emotions and tackling specific problems. Motivational interviewing is used to clarify values and build forward movement when someone feels stuck.

In sessions she helps people talk through relationship habits, set boundaries, and sort out how to balance care for others with their own needs. She also addresses stress from caregiving, chronic health issues, adoption and attachment concerns, and identity-related questions such as LGBT experiences.

Kylie frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens for the client’s priorities, suggests doable steps, and adjusts the pace based on what feels workable. People who want straightforward, skills-based support for anxiety, low mood, or recurring relationship patterns may find this style helpful.

How sessions work

How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's perspective. In practice this means the therapist reflects back what is said, asks gentle clarifying questions, and follows the client's priorities to shape sessions. It helps when someone wants to feel heard and sort their own thoughts.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Online work with CBT usually includes setting simple experiments, tracking patterns between sessions, and trying new ways of responding to distressing thoughts. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and recurring relationship patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick techniques that fit their goals and daily life, adjusting strategies as progress is made.

The therapist's biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Choosing an online option can make scheduling easier, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commute time so sessions fit into a busy day. Many people find online work helps them practice skills in the context of everyday routines while still getting structured support from a licensed professional.
