About Kyle
Kyle Yoder is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people facing relationship and life stresses. He works with adults on issues like anxiety, depression, self-esteem, career concerns, and problems with intimacy. He also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, and addictions.
He draws on approaches that are practical and conversational. Sessions are tailored to the person's goals and circumstances. Kyle aims to make therapy direct and approachable so people can try things that actually fit their lives.
How Kyle works
Kyle has five years of clinical experience and holds a Master of Science in Professional Counseling and Psychology. He also has a background in communication studies and biblical studies, which shape his clear, plainspoken style. His LPC credential covers Virginia and West Virginia.
In sessions he helps people name what matters, set realistic steps, and build everyday habits that support change. That might mean working on how someone talks about needs in relationships, learning skills to manage strong emotions, or planning next steps for a career shift. He treats people with respect and sensitivity and adapts the pace to what each person needs.
Kyle emphasizes collaboration - the client and therapist decide together what to try next. He encourages realistic goals and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small steps that align with those values while learning to sit with difficult feelings. It can help when stress, anxiety, or avoidance get in the way of what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns formed over time and helps people change how they connect, communicate, and respond to closeness or distance. It is useful for intimacy and trust issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and daily stress management.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kyle will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals and comfort level. He may blend elements from different approaches and will check in to see what is working and what should change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video lets people keep face-to-face contact; phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins; live chat and text messaging can support shorter updates, skill practice, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to get consistent support regardless of location.
