About Karlee

Karlee Young is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and ADHD. She speaks plainly and aims to make therapy useful and accessible. Her style is warm and direct, focused on practical steps people can use right away.

Karlee earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from California University of Pennsylvania and has nine years of experience in counseling. Early in her career she worked in the addictions field with adults and adolescents, and later shifted into grief work.

Background and approach

That range shaped her focus on life changes and the ways people rebuild control after loss or disruption. Her approach centers on the therapeutic relationship. She uses client-centered techniques that emphasize empathy, trust, and honest conversation.

Clients can expect a calm space to name problems and test small changes between sessions. Karlee also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Motivational interviewing is part of her toolbox when people want to increase motivation for change.

Mindfulness and existential ideas inform conversations about meaning, values, and coping with uncertainty. She works with issues such as caregiver stress, codependency, impulsivity, career and family concerns, and compassion fatigue. The aim is to help each person notice what’s getting in the way and practice realistic strategies that fit their daily life.

How Karlee's Approaches Translate Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building trust so clients can explore what matters most to them. Online sessions using this approach let people speak openly about stress, grief, ADHD concerns, and life changes while the therapist reflects and helps clarify goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Delivered over video or phone, CBT can include brief exercises, thought records, and homework that fit into a client's daily routine to tackle anxiety, low mood, and impulsivity.

Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and strengthens commitment. This collaborative style works well in shorter chat or text check-ins as well as longer video sessions when someone is weighing options about addiction recovery, career moves, or lifestyle changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Karlee will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust over time. That collaboration helps make therapy personally useful rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to keep momentum and try strategies in real situations.
