Dempsey Young

Licensed Psychologist Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Specialties: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, LGBTQIA+, Relationship Issues,

Introduction

I truly believe that one of the bravest things you can do is to begin to understand your own story. From this understanding and processing of your unique story, you can let go of traumas that control you, anxiety and depression road blocks, bad relationships, and overall the emotional pain that may prevent you from living a happy and fulfilling life that gets you excited to wake up to everyday. I want you to be free of that pain so that you can find meaning, excitement, and purpose in work, friendships, relationships, family, and really ALL areas of your life. You DESERVE this and I'm here to help you on this healing journey! So what is it like working with me? Therapy should not be a one-sided conversation and I'm definitely not a smile-and-nod therapist. I want to work collaboratively WITH you and I can promise that I am as real as it gets. You may hear me swear (haha), laugh hard with you, and just be my authentic self. For you to be real with me, I also need to be real too! I will work hard with you and to HEAR and SEE you starting your journey of healing. I work with most mental health concerns and have specialized training and experience in trauma recovery and working with LGBTQ+ individuals. I have immediate openings for both individuals and couples and can usually get you in same week. Check out my website and lets connect! Learn more about me on my website at dempseyyoung.com
