David Youngs is a licensed psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience working with individual adults. He believes that anxiety and depression are often normal responses to life's difficulties, and that no one is permanently stuck. People can develop new ways of living that reduce pain, foster safer and more loving relationships, and create greater meaning and purpose. His areas of focus include mood, stress, and trauma disorders such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD, as well as personality disorders and existential concerns. Having worked alongside psychiatrists in a mental health agency, he is comfortable supporting clients who take or are considering psychotropic medications. He has also completed specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). David brings warmth and genuine passion to this work.
