Welcome to Better Help! In person, I start by offering a cup of water before diving into the intake process. My approach as a psychodynamic counselor emphasizes hospitality—because as human beings, we're hardwired to ask "why?" Yet, in moments of uncertainty and stress, it's important to pause, take a breath, and intentionally decide our next steps. On Better Help, I specialize in equipping first responders, active military members, and men to address their mental health challenges and relationship concerns. I also work with individuals addressing concerns related to ADHD, depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, CPTSD, bipolar depression, sexual addiction, substance use disorders, relationship and identity issues, and the stress of adapting to challenging circumstances. When you're ready to dive i and lean into therapy , I look forward to working with you—and for you. Warmly, Bryan Young, LPC

Life is often difficult and challenging in the best of times. When you face anxiety, stress, depression, and feelings of inadequacy, the pain can be overwhelming. Life changes, relationship issues, family stress, and career challenges can activate deep feelings of confusion, failure, and unloveableness. If life has become too difficult to manage on your own, and you need assistance and support to sort things out, make necessary changes, and discover your innate talents and value, I can help. I have been working with people to confront and grow from the pain in their lives for 42 years. I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology – Berkeley and am a licensed psychologist in Texas and California. During my career I have worked in community mental health, private practice, inpatient facilities, business corporations, and nursing homes. The settings change and the content of people’s problems vary, but the underlying conflicts that cause psychological and emotional pain do not. Everyone wants to be heard, their issues understood, and to feel valuable and loved. I use a therapeutic approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic principles, and positive emotional support to create a safe space to explore and heal the childhood wounds that make you feel alone and misunderstood by friends, family, spouses, significant others, and the world. Together we will challenge negative self-talk, destructive behaviors, and repetitive patterns that end poorly, cause pain, and reinforce feelings of self-doubt and worthlessness. We will discover new and constructive ways for you to re-frame ingrained beliefs, change painful and self-negating thoughts, and free you from old dysfunctional decisions made long ago that are still impacting your daily life. Therapy is a journey. Sometimes we need a tune-up and sometimes an overhaul. Either way, our work together will help you to discover new strengths and skills you never knew you had, develop constructive and healthy ways to face life’s challenges, and free you to move forward in life with freedom and joy.
