About Louise
Louise Yee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She also addresses communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, workplace issues, and questions about life purpose.
Her practice uses straightforward conversation and practical planning. Sessions focus on identifying what feels stuck and on small, manageable steps to change. She listens for unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior and helps people try different ways of responding.
Over three decades of work have included a wide range of client concerns and everyday life problems. That experience informs how she helps people set realistic goals and measure progress. She adapts her approach to each person rather than following a fixed formula.
Louise aims to make room for difficult emotions and the practical challenges that come with them. She talks through relationship strains, work stress, and the impact of past trauma in clear, direct terms. Conversations can include rebuilding confidence, addressing social anxiety, or exploring what matters next in life.
To begin, she guides people through a short assessment and then outlines a plan with achievable steps. Her approach balances talking through problems with concrete strategies to change habits and reactions. She works in English and accepts international clients.
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Many practitioners who address stress, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem use evidence-based techniques that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors. One common approach helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, then practice more balanced ways of thinking to reduce anxious or low-mood reactions. This method can help with social anxiety, negative self-talk, and workplace stress.Another useful approach emphasizes gradual exposure to avoided situations and learning new responses to upsetting memories. It can make intrusive memories and post-traumatic stress symptoms less disruptive by breaking avoidance patterns and teaching coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. That means trying methods, checking how they feel in practice, and shifting course if something is not helpful.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caregiving, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full hour is not feasible. Licensed professionals can discuss practical arrangements during the initial scheduling steps to match therapy to everyday life.
