About Louise

Louise Yee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with thirty years of practice in New York. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also supports people working through trauma and relationship challenges.

Her approach is straightforward and respectful. Sessions start with listening to what matters most to the person. From there she and the person develop a plan that fits their needs and pace.

Background and approach

Conversations are tailored to each person rather than following one fixed method. She helps people sharpen communication, manage workplace strain, and cope with social anxiety. She also addresses issues like guilt, shame, forgiveness, isolation, and questions about life purpose.

Practical skills and small changes are emphasized so progress feels tangible. People who want clear support with emotional setbacks or with rebuilding confidence may find her approach helpful. She aims to create a calm space for honest talk and steady problem solving.

Taking the first step into therapy can feel hard, and she focuses on making that step manageable. Her background includes three decades of hands-on clinical work in New York. Louise uses that experience to adapt methods to each person’s situation.

She works with English-speaking clients and accepts international clients through online formats.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Louise lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

How evidence-based approaches work online

Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills that people can use between sessions. One common approach emphasizes building coping skills to reduce anxiety and manage stress. It teaches concrete breathing, pacing, and thought-management strategies that help when worries spike.

Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and its effects in manageable steps. This method helps people make sense of difficult events, reduce distressing reactions, and regain confidence in daily life. It often combines guided conversation with exercises to practice afterward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you’ll try methods that match your needs and adjust them based on what feels useful.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility. Video sessions work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a brief break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between appointments.
