My name is Gwendolyn Young, I come to the counseling profession with life experiences that have molded me into the unique and determined person that I am today. While in my storm I did not understand, at times I felt hopeless. However, once I was able to break through the tension, I became mindful and aware of who I am as a person. Today I now understand that there are lessons to learn from the good things in life as well as the bad experiences that life has to offer. The benefits of those lessons were astronomical. Through it all I never gave up on myself even if the odds were totally against me. I am a licensed professional counselor and addiction specialist. I have earned a master's degree in professional counseling, a master's degree in addiction counseling and a post-master's in addiction specialization. I am a dedicated counselor that understand the many turmoil’s of those who seek my help. Additionally, I am a person-centered clinician skilled in the use of various theoretical orientations that will help the person to break through their life situation (s).

Minutes into my very first session with Ms. Gwen, I knew that she was the perfect fit! She tells me “we didn’t meet on accident” & she was right! This amazing woman is helping me get through so much in such a short time by just being 100% real with me & I love it! She’s very professional & relatable. I feel like I’m trusting my life story with a close aunt rather a licensed therapist. She makes sessions very comfortable which allows me to relax & open up easily! Ms. Gwen is THE TRUTH!!! I absolutely recommended her! 1000/10

I feel like I have accomplished a lot in life and still have a lot left to accomplish. Ive had a decent support system and never felt under-recognized. However, my sessions with Gwen, she would stop and tell me how proud of me she was and state how large an accomplishment was and I didnt know how much that meant to me until she said it and I broke down in tears. I still dont quite understand why it made me so emotional but, Im sure she does. It made me more open to her guidance and to trust the process because she clearly saw something that Ive been missing.

I had one session with Gwendolyn in which by the end I was crying (in a good way!) It was such a relief to get out of my head and get an objective perspective on my anxiety and depression. Gwendolyn's use of CBT has been a great help, and I've been using it to talk myself out of anxiety attacks all week. Strongly recommend. Thank you Gwendolyn!

It's been a long time since I've felt that I have it in me to step outside of my isolation and make effort to find an activity group to join that shares similar interest. Gwen has really helped me to find my words and express the strength and possibilities that already lies within me. She really can relate to me and she makes it safe to open up. She does not let me stay in that stuck place. Grateful for Gwen, thank you so much!
