About Yvette

Yvette Huddleston is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She supports clients navigating family problems, issues tied to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, and the emotional fallout from trauma and abuse. She also works with people coping with loss, codependency, and struggles around self-esteem and motivation.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She treats the client as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than abstract theory. Yvette aims to make change feel doable instead of overwhelming.

Yvette uses several evidence-informed approaches to shape sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and taking action even when difficult feelings are present. Client-centered methods prioritize listening and meeting each person where they are.

In practice she combines these methods with mindfulness exercises and emotionally-focused techniques to address relationship and intimacy concerns. The work often includes skill-building, behavior changes, and small experiments to test new ways of coping. Progress is tracked through steps the client and therapist agree on.

Yvette holds an MS LCSW in Mississippi and has three years of documented experience as a licensed clinician. Sessions are conducted in English and she is not accepting international clients. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match people with a schedule that fits their needs.

Approaches that guide online work and what to expect

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and take actions that match those values even when emotions are hard. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and distress after loss. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and replaces them with concrete behavior changes and experiments to test new ways of coping. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead, creating space for people to tell their story and find their own solutions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they choose which methods to use. That collaborative process can shift over time as different challenges come up.

This therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. They also make it possible to practice skills in the environments where problems occur. The clinician uses her stated approaches to adapt exercises and discussions for an online setting, keeping the focus on practical steps and values-based goals.
