About Anderson
Anderson Yoon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 22 years of professional experience. He has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, career difficulties, and depression. He holds a doctorate from UPenn and a master's degree from Oxford, and he combines clinical work with his role as a full-time tenure-track assistant professor.
He helps people who feel stuck after big life changes or who are unsure what matters next. Conversations typically focus on immediate problems like panic, workplace strain, or relationship friction. He also addresses longer-standing struggles such as attachment issues, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
In sessions he treats clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and research experience to guide his work. That means clear goals, practical steps, and regular check-ins on progress.
He works in English and Korean and brings both clinical and academic perspectives to sessions. People often find this blend helpful when they want a grounded, practical way to sort through career choices, grief from separation, or patterns of guilt and shame.
To begin, he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and costs vary depending on location.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Many of his sessions use evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear problems and measurable steps. One common approach emphasizes behavioral and cognitive strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this helps with panic, social anxiety, and mood symptoms by practicing new responses and tracking progress. Another approach draws on trauma-informed methods to address the effects of abuse and post-traumatic stress through pacing, stabilization, and gradual processing.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. He will work with each person to match techniques to their goals, needs, and comfort level. That means checking in regularly and adjusting methods if something isn’t working as hoped.
Confirm the specific online session formats available before booking, as they are not listed here. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions may use less bandwidth and video sessions let people work face to face when helpful. Discuss format preferences during the matching questionnaire and first appointment so sessions line up with daily life.
