About Diseree

Diseree Young is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with four decades of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, relationship struggles, and changes in life. Diseree writes in a warm, straightforward way and aims to make therapy feel practical and approachable for everyday life.

Her sessions emphasize listening and building on the strengths a person already has. She uses a person-centered stance, inviting clients to shape goals and pace. Diseree pairs this with cognitive-behavioral tools to address unhelpful thinking and emotion-focused techniques to open up difficult conversations.

Over her career she has supported people through mood concerns like depression and bipolar, substance and behavioral addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and issues around identity and intimacy. Sleep and rest difficulties are included among the areas she helps people manage, alongside eating concerns, ADHD, and career or caregiving stress.

Her approach is practical and gradual. She helps people identify small changes that fit their daily routines. Sessions often focus on skills to reduce worry, improve sleep routines, manage strong emotions, and repair important relationships.

Diseree combines empathy with hands-on strategies. She encourages clients to notice progress, try out new ways of coping, and adjust plans as needed. This steady, supportive method is aimed at lasting change one step at a time.

Therapeutic approaches for online work and everyday life

Diseree often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and when sleep or daily routines feel disrupted.

She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change thinking patterns that feed worry or low mood. CBT includes practical exercises and behavior experiments that fit into normal days and bedtime routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and recommend strategies to try. That plan can change as progress is made and new goals emerge, keeping the process collaborative.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make therapy easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or school. They also allow focused check-ins, skills practice, and step-by-step planning that fit into a client's week without requiring long travel time.
