Recommendations

I have referred to Vicki over many years. Both because she’s a skilled clinician and also because of the glowing feedback from my clients. My clients appreciate her work very much.

She is able to support and understand each person in the couple or family. She’s been especially adept with couples and parents helping them connect and find ways to work together.

She has a deep understanding of ADHD, autism and learning disabilities. She helps parents understand the child they have and create new options.

Vicki is a wonderful, gifted and empathic therapist. I work with elders and consulted with her for several years, which was very helpful to me and my practice. She is able to get to core issues quickly and comes up with creative practical solutions that are client centered.

As a Trauma specialist who uses EMDR, Vicki Young and I have been consulting for over 25 years. I’m so impressed by her ability to take in the crucial information about a client’s circumstances very quickly, while establishing rapport. She accepts people and regardless of the limitations of their abilities or situation, creates change ideas that can succeed. Her caring and patience make her a safe, resourceful therapist who can support personal growth.

Vicki is a really good listener. She is supportive when you just need to vent or will be your sounding board when you are ready to look for solutions.

Vicki worked well with many different kinds of families. She was caring and respectful of them all. When she was collaborating with teachers she always asked, ‘How can I help?’

She’s super intuitive. She often noticed what was needed even if it wasn’t being discussed. Most of all, she helped us focus on what we could actually do, and helped us break down overwhelming things into a plan with manageable steps. Teens don’t trust, but they often trusted her.
