Mark Yeung is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with twelve years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, depression, addictions, and a wide range of life transitions. As an LCSW he has advanced training in clinical social work and provides therapy that blends practical skills with an empathic, person-centered stance. He works with adults on issues that include parenting, career concerns, attention differences, trauma and abuse, caregiving and aging related stress, and intimacy-related difficulties.

He draws on evidence-informed approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), while also using client-centered principles to build a collaborative working alliance. This combination lets him balance concrete problem-solving with attention to values, emotion regulation, and meaningful change in daily life. Mark emphasizes warmth, genuineness, and building a strong therapeutic relationship as essential components of effective work.

Rather than promising quick fixes, he focuses on helping clients adopt new behaviors, clarify priorities, and develop sustainable coping strategies. His practice aims to be respectful of each person s background and goals and to help clients move toward more manageable, value-driven ways of living.

Approaches in Online Therapy and How They Help

Mark Yeung uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify personal values and take meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - this approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing different behavioral strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, which often helps with anxiety, mood, and sleep concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and coping with stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mark works collaboratively with clients to explore which tools and techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time so therapy stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from home or other locations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and use different formats for different goals or comfort levels.
