About Anderson
Anderson Yoon is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience. He practices in New York and brings a calm, direct style to work on stress, anxiety, anger, trauma, and career concerns. He approaches each person as the expert on their own life.
He looks for realistic steps that fit daily routines. Sessions focus on small, practical changes and clearer thinking rather than jargon or tests. Yoon draws on long clinical experience and academic work to guide conversations.
Background and approach
His background includes a doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania and a master’s degree from Oxford, with research training at Harvard Medical School. He also teaches full time on a tenure-track faculty line, which keeps his work connected to current research. In sessions he helps people name patterns that feed stress and anger.
He offers ways to spot triggers, calm strong feelings, and choose actions that match personal goals. He also supports people struggling with depression, panic, and workplace strain. Work can include short exercises, practice between sessions, and straightforward feedback.
He offers therapy in English and Korean and adapts pacing to what each person needs. Taking the first step is often the hardest part, and he aims to make that step feel manageable.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Anderson uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches steps to manage intense feelings and reduce reactivity; this helps with anger, panic, and moment-to-moment distress. Another common approach centers on trauma-informed strategies that help people understand how past experiences shape current reactions and build safer responses to triggers.Finding the best approach happens together. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, symptoms, and daily life. That collaborative process may lead to trying different techniques and adjusting pace based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer practical flexibility. Video lets people read facial cues and practice conversations in real time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging make it easier to fit brief support into a busy day and to follow up with exercises between sessions. These options help people access therapy from varied schedules and locations.
