Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Dempsey is a licensed psychologist that provides individual and couples therapy services as well as psychological testing for adults to help people thrive and begin living a fulfilling life as the best versions of themselves. I am not really a sit back and just listen therapist... as I ask you to bring your authentic self to sessions, I do the same and often a lot more interpersonal and direct if needed but of course invested in our relationship as a safe and empathic one. Sometimes being stuck in the trees blocks us from moving forward and to where we want to be. Through therapy, we can work our way through the woods together to the open field waiting for you. You DESERVE to be your best and full self and I believe I can help bring that to your life. Reach out and we can chat about your concerns and get started!
