Dr. Young has been wonderful to work with. She’s been very patient with me and asks questions in a way that not only allows her to understand me better, but also allows myself to understand. She has helped me incrementally diminish my anxiety, so I would highly recommend her to anyone else who needs help with anxiety management.
