My name is Alesa Champion-Young, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I attended graduate school at Argosy University and received my Master’s Degree. I obtained my undergraduate degree from The University of North Texas and received my BAAS with a focus in Chemical Dependence. I have been practicing both disciplines since 2014. I work from a person-centered approach. I encourage clients to identify and enlist their internal strengths and resources to approach life’s challenges. Due to my multicultural training and ability to observe different perspectives, I can meet people where they are while providing and creating a safe, and supportive environment where clients can address their trauma, mental health, substance use and abuse without criticism and judgment. I have experience working with diverse populations with an array of mental health symptoms and disorders including but not limited to Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, ADHD, ASD-related challenges, co-occurring Substance Use Disorder, Mood Disorder, Schizophrenia, and Major Depressive Disorder. I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, baking, and enjoying life.
