About Mark

Mark Yeung is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of practice who works from Oregon. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and grief concerns, as well as depression, addiction, anger, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. He also supports those navigating career change, ADHD, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and end-of-life matters.

He trained at the University of California, Berkeley and holds a Master of Social Work and a Master of Public Health. Over a decade of clinical experience includes counseling people who are medically ill, bereaved, or facing major life transitions. That background shapes a practical, skills-focused approach to problems that feel urgent or overwhelming.

In sessions he blends a few well-known therapies into a human-centered, solution-focused style. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors, Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation skills, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and committed action. He also draws on client-centered ideas to keep conversations direct and respectful.

Sessions tend to focus on behavior changes, communication strategies, and coping skills you can try between meetings. He pays attention to how new habits fit into everyday life and helps set straightforward practice goals. People who want clear steps and practical tools often find this approach useful.

Mark works with a wide range of life and mental health concerns, including family-of-origin issues, multicultural and immigration concerns, and compassion fatigue. He offers therapy in English and does not take international clients. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches translate to online work

Mark regularly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors, which can be practiced between sessions with worksheets and brief exercises. He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills useful when anger or intense feelings arise. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify what matters to a person and to set small, values-based actions that reduce avoidance and build momentum.

Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. He will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. Sessions include trying skills, checking what worked, and adjusting the plan together so it fits daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking. The therapist notes that sessions help fit therapy into ordinary schedules and emphasize practical tools you can use between meetings. For example, short check-ins can work around a work break, and talking through emotion-regulation steps can be practiced in real situations. If you need specifics about how sessions are delivered, check the session options during sign-up.
