Deonia Young, LICSW, LCSW, CSW

Deonia Young is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who brings six years of clinical experience to her practice. She speaks English and practices in Georgia. Deonia focuses on common life challenges like stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, anger, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. She draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy when forming a plan with clients. Sessions are collaborative and grounded in practical steps. She helps people notice patterns, learn skills for managing intense emotions, and try small changes that add up over time. Deonia emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be talked through openly. She uses straightforward conversation to identify immediate worries and long-standing patterns. From there she designs short-term goals and skill-building exercises tailored to each person. Her background includes broad social work experience alongside clinical practice. She mentions a long-term commitment to helping people manage life transitions, parenting strain, identity issues, and family-of-origin matters. That background informs how she supports people through grief, abandonment wounds, adoption and foster care issues, and caregiver stress. Taking a first step can feel hard, and Deonia aims to make starting therapy simple. Prospective clients begin by using the site’s Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling a session based on therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
