Everything you need to know about starting therapy.

If you or your child is navigating persistent anxiety, mood shifts, behavioral challenges, academic struggles, or difficult life transitions, a consultation can help determine the best path forward. Therapy provides active support through addressing target symptoms and reducing distress.

The free 15-minute phone consultation gives us a chance to briefly discuss your current concerns, answer your questions regarding practice policies and approach, and confirm if Dr. DeYoung's clinical expertise matches your specific goals.

The comprehensive 2-hour intake is a collaborative session where Dr. DeYoung gathers background history, reviews current symptoms and strengths, and collaborates with you to establish clear, evidence-based treatment goals.

I offer both in-person and telehealth appointments and am flexible to adjust session format as needed during treatment.

I work with children, adolescents, and young adults.

Individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and typically scheduled on a weekly basis. Session frequency is adjusted dynamically based on client progress and clinical needs.

Dr. DeYoung is an out-of-network provider. Detailed monthly statements (superbills) can be provided for you to submit to your health insurance carrier for out-of-network reimbursement according to your plan's benefits.

At this time, I can only provide services to clients who are physically located inPennsylvania during sessions.

Parent involvement is an essential component of youth therapy. Depending on your child’s needs, treatment may include full sessions conducted exclusively or primarily with caregivers, joint family sessions, and/or periodic parent check-ins. These sessions provide caregivers with guidance and practical strategies to support the child’s progress across home, school, and daily settings.
