About Kyle
Kyle Yoder is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on practical help for people feeling stuck. He works with adults facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and career stress. Sessions emphasize clear goals and usable strategies.
He communicates with directness and compassion to help clients take manageable steps forward. Yoder draws on multiple approaches to match what each person needs. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take action despite difficult thoughts.
Background and approach
He applies Attachment-Based ideas when relationship patterns and closeness are the main concern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used for skills building and emotion regulation. He earned a Master of Science in Professional Counseling and Psychology and holds LPC licensure in Virginia and West Virginia.
Those clinical credentials support five years of practice helping people work through grief, trauma, and addictive behavior. He also brings a background in communication studies and an associate degree in biblical studies and theology. In sessions he aims to tailor conversations and plans to what each person actually needs.
That can mean short-term coaching for a career decision or longer work on attachment and intimacy patterns. The focus is on clear, achievable steps rather than jargon or vague goals. Kyle aims to create a respectful space where people feel heard and guided.
He frames change as a sequence of small choices and practical skills, and he works collaboratively to help clients move toward more satisfying relationships and daily functioning.

Approaches that guide online parenting and relationship work
Kyle combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values, even when uncomfortable feelings remain. It is useful for parenting stress, anxiety, and making changes in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of closeness and distance in relationships and helps people change how they connect, which can be helpful for intimacy and family conflict.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kyle will listen to your goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That means trying specific strategies, checking progress, and shifting emphasis between values-based action, attachment work, or skills training as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversation and skill practice, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting duties, work, or travel while keeping focus on practical change and relationship repair.
