Diseree Young, LMSW

Diseree Young is a licensed clinical social worker in Michigan with 40 years of experience. She meets people where they are and helps them face stress, anxiety, relationship pain, grief, and questions about self-worth. Her tone is warm and direct, aimed at making difficult conversations feel manageable.

She uses a person-centered way of working that focuses on each person's needs and goals. Diseree mixes practical strategies and talking through feelings so people can make small changes that add up. She draws on approaches that help with mood, coping, and relationship patterns without overwhelming clients with technical language.

Her background spans many different life stages and situations. That range has given her experience supporting people through career strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related issues. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, bipolar mood swings, eating and sleeping problems, and caregiver stress.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to the person seeking help. Diseree emphasizes building on the strengths someone already has while introducing tools for handling upsetting thoughts and behaviors. Progress is described as a step-by-step process rather than a quick fix.

People who want practical support and steady encouragement often look for this kind of approach. Her work blends human-focused listening with cognitive and behavioral strategies, all tailored to what each person says they need.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help when anxiety, grief, or painful feelings keep someone from living the way they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, centers on emotions in relationships and helps people name and respond to feelings in clearer, healthier ways.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to try methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort. That process can include trying different techniques and checking in about what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking, as session formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It can also let a session be shorter or done without video when that works better for a quick check-in or limited bandwidth. Ask about formats and scheduling to see what fits everyday routines.
