About Yvette
Yvette Fort is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 25 years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, career questions, and major life changes.
She focuses on practical conversation and clear goals. Sessions are used to notice patterns, build coping habits, and sort through options when work or relationships shift. She also addresses related concerns such as communication problems, guilt and shame, impulsive reactions, and feelings of isolation.
Yvette aims to make sessions straightforward. She listens for what feels most urgent and helps people take manageable next steps. That can include practicing skills between meetings or weighing different career and life choices.
Her approach emphasizes respectful, sensitive interaction and adjusts to each person’s needs. Treatment plans are developed with the client and revisited as things change. The emphasis is on what can be tried now, and what might help over the coming weeks and months.
People often come when they feel stuck after a change in work, relationships, or health and want clarity about what to do next. Yvette works with clients to name priorities and test practical ways forward. Sessions are intended to be steady, concrete, and focused on everyday problems and decisions.
How evidence-based methods are used online
Yvette works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and problem solving. One common approach helps people recognize unhelpful thinking and practice different responses to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Another approach teaches grounding and safety strategies to manage reactions after trauma and to cope with intrusive memories or strong emotional responses.Choosing the right method is part of the work. Yvette collaborates with each person to decide which techniques match their goals and current needs. That means trying approaches, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists and licensed professionals working remotely can still run skills practice, review real-life situations, and support progress between sessions in ways that fit everyday schedules.
