About Yong
Yong Pak is a Nevada Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years in the mental health field. She began her career providing specialized support to children and families and later expanded to individual, couple, and family therapy in Las Vegas. Yong focuses on practical help for everyday troubles like anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and relationship strain.
She draws on a client-centered approach, adapting techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to fit each person's needs. Sessions often combine skills work, problem solving, and mindful awareness. Yong also uses elements of emotionally-focused and solution-focused work when those methods suit the situation.
Her background includes experience with bipolar disorder, ADHD, obsessive thoughts, and responses to trauma and grief. She has worked with people facing addictions, anger struggles, self-esteem concerns, and career or life transitions. She also helps clients navigate parenting and family conflict without assuming a single path forward.
Yong frames therapy as a collaborative effort. She asks questions, listens to what matters most, and adjusts tools to match your goals. Expect clear steps, skill practice, and paced conversation rather than jargon-heavy lectures.
If you want a pragmatic, adaptable therapist who centers your priorities, Yong offers an approach that aims to make day-to-day life more manageable and relationships easier to understand.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Client-centered therapy puts the person and their priorities first. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to identify what matters most and set goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and includes practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it can help with anxiety, depression, and daily coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals and preferences. That may mean blending supportive listening with skill practice, or focusing on relationship patterns when needed.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for flexible scheduling. It can also support steady skill practice between sessions and make check-ins possible during transitional periods. The therapist will help pick a session rhythm and approach that fits the client's routine and goals.
