About Yvette
Yvette Huddleston, LCSW, helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and trauma. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable for people who are nervous about starting therapy.
Yvette frames clients as experts on their own lives. She listens without judgment and highlights strengths clients already have. Sessions focus on small, practical steps that fit into daily life rather than heavy theory. Her style is steady, encouraging, and rooted in respect for each person's story.
In the room she blends techniques from several common approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people in clarifying values and taking values-based action even when emotions feel hard. Mindfulness strategies are used to notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept up by them.
Yvette also draws on client-centered and emotionally-focused ideas to build a trusting, collaborative relationship. She works at a measured pace so people can explore difficult topics such as family of origin issues, codependency, abandonment, or caregiving stress. Practical coping skills are paired with attention to underlying hurts.
Her background includes direct social work practice in Mississippi and three years of clinical experience as an LCSW. Yvette encourages people to take small steps, try the work, and adjust the approach together as goals and needs become clearer.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
The practice uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in straightforward ways. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps even when emotions are uncomfortable. CBT focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying something for a few sessions, checking how it feels, and shifting course when needed so the plan stays useful.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins that suit different schedules. It can also allow for phone or lower-bandwidth sessions when video is difficult. Talk with the therapist during scheduling about which session length and setup will best match practical needs.
