Hello, I'm Stefanie Young, an Army brat, born in Germany and a Gulf War Veteran. I've spent my entire career in and around first response: military, military police, and civilian law enforcement which has truly shaped my approach to therapy by understanding the culture, the pressures that come with it, and what it takes to finally talk to someone.
My practice is a confidential, open space for adults working through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, anger, and depression. If you're a first responder or veteran, you won't need to explain your world to me, I've lived it. And if you're not, you're equally welcome as well.

Frequently asked questions
Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Akron
Searching for therapists in Akron starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Akron therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to address. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a mid-sized city like Akron, the right fit may depend on both clinical focus and practical details. You may prefer an in-person therapist near West Akron, Highland Square, Chapel Hill, or downtown, or virtual sessions that make scheduling easier across work, school, and family routines. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and approach to care.
Therapy in Akron can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists in Akron who match your needs, take your insurance, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can review bios, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
