About Diseree
Diseree Young is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with 40 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and anger. She also helps people dealing with grief, addictions, ADHD, and career or life transitions.
Her approach blends practical talk and skill-building with a person-centered outlook. Sessions focus on identifying what triggers strong emotions like anger and learning concrete ways to respond differently. She uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and emotion-focused work to help people change patterns that are getting in the way.
Clients can expect direct conversation about current problems and steps to try between sessions. That may include testing small behavior changes, practicing new communication habits, or tracking thoughts that feed frustration. The work aims to increase day-to-day coping rather than promising quick fixes.
Young has worked across many populations over her career, including children, adolescents, older adults, LGBTQ clients, couples, and families. Her background includes supportive, interactive care that emphasizes building on existing strengths and practical problem solving.
She frames progress as steady practice and small shifts. People who come because they snap at loved ones, struggle with simmering resentment, or feel overwhelmed by work demands will find straightforward tools and a focus on usable change. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them. It encourages identifying personal values and taking small actions that line up with those values, which can help with anger and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; it teaches practical strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts and test new responses to triggers. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding and expressing core emotions to improve how people relate and connect, which can be useful when anger affects relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is reviewed together.
