About Yvette

Yvette Huddleston is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Mississippi with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, depression, grief, and family concerns including family of origin issues. She also focuses on matters such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and codependency.

Yvette centers sessions on the client's goals and experiences. She uses practical talk and evidence-based tools to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change in daily life.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. Those methods are used to help people identify underlying thoughts and emotions, practice new skills, and build more satisfying connections with others.

People who want to address how family patterns affect current relationships will find concrete strategies here. Yvette helps people name repeating roles or expectations from their family of origin and then practice new boundaries and behaviors. Work can include building emotional awareness, improving communication, and managing anxiety related to relationships.

She asks clients to be active in sessions and try things between meetings. Progress is tracked through small, practical steps that fit into everyday life. Before booking, confirm the current session options and how they are scheduled.

How her approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and problems that come from repeating family patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and reshaping emotional responses in relationships to improve connection and reduce repeated conflict patterns.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean trying brief CBT skills, adding mindfulness practices, or exploring emotional patterns from early family life over several sessions.

Confirm the current session options before booking, because specific formats are not listed in the original profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support steady progress with regular scheduling and practice between sessions, while the therapist and client adjust the mix of approaches as they go.
