About Yvette
Yvette Fort is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 25 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, recover from trauma and abuse, and address self-esteem and career concerns. Her work also covers coping with life changes and related struggles.
Yvette uses straightforward conversation to identify what feels most urgent. She listens for how stress shows up day to day and then helps people prioritize small, practical steps. Sessions focus on concrete coping skills, clearer communication, and rebuilding confidence so daily life can feel more manageable.
She also explores how past hurt or abuse affects current relationships and choices. That often means naming patterns and trying different ways of responding. When career frustration is part of the problem, she helps clarify goals and practical next steps at work.
Yvette pays attention to how guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation affect functioning. She offers ways to interrupt unhelpful reactions and practice new responses. Panic symptoms are addressed with calm, stepwise techniques aimed at reducing their intensity over time.
The approach is collaborative and focused on what changes will help most right now. People leave sessions with clear options to try between meetings. To start, she asks a few questions so sessions can focus on the problems that matter most.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used and how online sessions are structured
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used in this practice include short-term skills work and trauma-focused strategies. Skills work teaches step-by-step methods to manage anxiety, reduce panic symptoms, and handle workplace stress. Trauma-focused techniques focus on understanding how past hurt affects present behavior and on practicing different ways of responding to triggers.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify goals and then tests methods that match those goals and preferences. This process helps pinpoint what feels most helpful and what to adjust as therapy continues.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits your schedule. They can also let you meet with a licensed professional from your home or workplace when quieter surroundings and timing align with your day. Ask about specific session formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
