About Kylie
Kylie Yacuzzo is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She draws on seven years of experience to help people handle stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and parenting challenges. Kylie writes plainly and keeps sessions focused on what matters now for each client.
She emphasizes that people are the experts in their own lives. Sessions start by listening to what feels most urgent. Then she and the client set small, doable goals to build momentum and confidence.
Background and approach
Kylie uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to change unhelpful thinking and calm the body. Her background includes supporting people through relationship strain, career shifts, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles. She also works with concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, and the effects of chronic illness.
These topics often come up alongside parenting stress and life transitions. Kylie adapts strategies to fit daily life. That might mean short skills practice, problem-solving steps, or motivational interviewing to increase follow-through.
Sessions aim to leave clients with one practical thing to try between meetings. People who choose her tend to want clear, usable guidance and an accepting approach. Kylie speaks English and practices in North Carolina as an LCSW.
She encourages steady progress and respects each person's pace.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-centered therapy starts with listening. The therapist follows each person's priorities and builds goals from what matters most, which helps when parenting stress or life changes feel overwhelming.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on connecting thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Mindfulness-based techniques train attention to the present moment and simple breath or body exercises. These tools can help when stress feels constant or emotions feel intense.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has worked before. Together they decide which approach or blend of approaches to try and adjust over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls suit longer sessions that need face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work if bandwidth is limited, live chat provides shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people send updates and get brief support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family and work schedules while trying different methods.
