About Diseree
Diseree Young is a Licensed Master Social Worker with 40 years of practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She meets people where they are and offers steady, practical support.
Her sessions are straightforward and focused on real life problems. She listens, reflects what she hears, and works with each person to set doable goals. Diseree blends practical skills with a heartfelt, person-centered manner so clients can try new ways of coping and communicating.
Background and approach
Over her career she has worked with a wide range of concerns such as grief, parenting strain, addictions, LGBTQ issues, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating problems, and career transitions. She also helps people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, and issues around attachment or abandonment. Her approach adapts to the issue at hand and the individual sitting across from her.
Diseree uses evidence-informed tools to teach coping skills, reframe unhelpful thinking, and strengthen emotional awareness. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered care to build practical plans for change. Sessions are available in multiple remote formats to fit different schedules and needs.
People who want straightforward, experience-based guidance and clear homework between meetings may find her approach especially useful.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Diseree uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that translate well to online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings, choose what matters most, and take small actions toward those values. It can help with anxiety, anger, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and learning new skills to change behavior and mood; it is often useful for depression, anxiety, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and tailor methods to fit their needs. Therapy is collaborative: the client and therapist try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat or messaging supports shorter check-ins, homework review, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or other life demands.
