Nancy Young

My communication style

I use comforting, clear communication to help us understand which approach will be successful. Regardless of the therapeutic approach we choose, I'll be there with emotional support and kindness. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard and understood throughout our work together.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a mother of four, I became aware of the mental health challenges families confront. This led me to focus my practice on couples and family therapy. I've worked with families impacted by gang violence and victims of domestic violence, and spent years as a mediator and child advocate helping families through difficult times.

My goals for you

Once I've established a trusting relationship with you, we'll develop short and long-term goals together. By putting goals in writing, I help you focus on your needs and create achievable goals in a realistic time frame. This clarity helps us measure progress and celebrate your growth along the way.

Our first session

My goal is to make you feel safe and understood. I know it can be stressful to choose to see a therapist, so I provide an environment conducive to a beneficial working relationship. We'll discuss confidentiality, therapy conditions, and any questions you have about how I work. I want you to feel comfortable from the start.
