Lisa Young

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

If there is one thing you and I both know, it’s that life can be really hard sometimes. Navigating those times alone can make it so much worse. For the past 15 years, I have been bringing my compassion, kindness, and curiosity to people going through some of the worst that life has to offer to help make life not only bearable, but also meaningful. My clients usually describe me as genuine, caring, and relatable. Though I use a variety of modalities, I tend to work from a trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy stance and utilize a combination of therapeutic intervention, education, and coaching based on the particular need at the time – in regular English, that just means I work to see you as a whole person with changing needs over time and that I am flexible enough to adjust to those changing needs. I have worked with people experiencing a wide range of problems, but especially enjoy working with people with ADHD, depression, and anxiety, as well as with people who are generally doing ok but could just use someone to bounce things off of, help with setting goals, and someone to be accountable to. No matter the circumstance, things can be better. I would love to be there to support you in your growth!

As for my personal background, I am a liberal and feminist woman with a wife and 2 young kids. I am a late-diagnosis ADHDer myself and know personally the difficulty that comes with both the condition and the lack of diagnosis. In addition to being busy with family and a therapy business, I also have a tiny farm and an unreasonable number of creative interests because the world is far too inspiring to be any other way!

About

Lisa Young brings 15 years of clinical experience to people navigating difficult periods in life. She combines compassion, curiosity, and kindness to help clients move from mere survival toward greater meaning and well-being.

She is a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania, a credential that reflects advanced training and authorization to provide clinical social work in the state (license CW017594). Her work is trauma-informed and grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy, and she blends therapeutic interventions, education, and coaching to meet each person’s needs.

Lisa is flexible in her approach and adapts as clients’ needs change over time. She particularly enjoys supporting people with ADHD, depression, and anxiety, as well as those who are generally managing okay but want someone to brainstorm with, set goals alongside, and provide accountability.

Clients usually describe her as genuine, caring, and relatable. Outside of her practice she identifies as a liberal feminist, is married to a wife, and has two young children. She was diagnosed with ADHD later in life, so she understands both the challenges of the condition and the experience of a late diagnosis.

When she is not balancing family life and her therapy practice, Lisa spends time on a small farm and pursues many creative interests, reflecting a belief that the world offers abundant inspiration. She welcomes the opportunity to support clients in their growth and change.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether remote sessions can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy can be just as effective as traditional in-person care. One major advantage is flexibility – you can connect in the way that suits you best, whether by video, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy schedule. All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and if you decide you would prefer a different provider you are able to switch to another therapist at any time. For many people, remote therapy offers an accessible, effective path to support and progress.
