About Stephanie
Stephanie Young is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with 13 years of experience. She works from Utah and focuses on practical, behavior-oriented work to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Stephanie uses clear, direct conversation to help clients make changes they can keep.
She trained in psychology and clinical counseling and has spent much of her career treating addiction and dual diagnosis concerns alongside mood and anxiety symptoms. Her background also includes marriage and family counseling and coaching in life skills and communication. That mix gives her experience with relationship strain, parenting worries, career stress, and blended family challenges.
In sessions she often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to look at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. She blends that with client-centered listening so people feel heard while they try new behaviors. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods are part of her toolbox when clients want to set short-term goals and build momentum.
Stephanie aims to be straightforward and encouraging. She will invite clients to notice patterns, try different approaches, and track small wins. She also expects honesty and gentle pushback when needed so change happens more quickly.
Her practical, creative style means she adapts techniques to the person in front of her. People who want clear strategies, help with coping, and support rebuilding self-esteem often find that approach useful.
