Carolyn Heier Young, PsyD

I work with a diverse group of clients, including children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I am able to help individuals of all ages with a wide range of issues, including depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma. With children, I also help with ADHD, emotional and behavioral problems, and selective mutism, and I help parents with parenting skills. Bilingual in English and Spanish, I enjoy working with individuals from diverse groups, including the LGBTQ community and individuals from diverse ethnic backgrounds. I help adults and children alike to achieve their goals and reach their full potential.

While my specialty is in working with children, and I work with children as young as age 2, having such a foundation actually helps with my adult work as well. I can fully understand and deal with underlying dynamics stemming from childhood that affect adult behavior and emotions.

My style includes working from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), and family systems orientations, combining them as appropriate in an integrative approach that best meets the needs of each individual/family with whom I work. In addition, in working with children, I conduct play therapy and use behavioral interventions as needed.
