About Diseree

Diseree Young is a licensed clinical social worker who brings 40 years of experience to her practice in Michigan. She works with people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, grief, addiction, ADHD, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy.

Background and approach

Her background includes work across the lifespan with infants, children, adolescents, young adults, older adults, families, couples, and LGBTQ clients, which informs a flexible, person-centered approach. Her style is warm, interactive, and supportive, blending humanistic and psychodynamic sensibilities with cognitive-behavioral tools.

Diseree emphasizes real-world, reality-based strategies while remaining attuned to each person's inner experience, helping clients find and use strengths they already possess. She frames therapy as a collaborative, step-by-step process aimed at practical change and greater daily well-being.

Her credential is LMSW, Licensed Master Social Worker, and she practices from Michigan where she offers multiple formats for online sessions.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Diseree commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than struggle with them, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then develops practical skills to shift those patterns, often benefiting mood, anxiety, and coping with daily challenges.

Choosing the right approach is considered part of the therapeutic process, and she collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance helps shape a personalized plan that can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work on skills and goals between in-depth sessions, while allowing therapists to use ACT and CBT tools in ways that suit each client's routine and comfort.
