About Prof. Shawn Young

I am a LICSW licensed in New Hampshire and Maine with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist, counselor, and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I have also worked in Higher Education for the last 10+ years, so I am familiar with many of the challenges of students, faculty, and administration. I am an Air Force Veteran and have spent time oversees. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines acceptance and commitment, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
