About Mark
Mark Yeung is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience based in Oregon. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, addictions, and codependency among other concerns. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
Mark trained at the University of California, Berkeley and holds a Master of Social Work and a Master of Public Health. He has worked with medically ill and terminally ill people, the bereaved, veterans, and others facing complex life stressors. That background informs how he listens and what he notices in sessions.
His approach blends several evidence-informed methods. He commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot and test unhelpful thoughts. He draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and acceptance-based work through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). He also uses a client-centered, solution-focused way of talking so sessions stay practical.
In a meeting with Mark, expect help identifying patterns that keep you stuck, like people-pleasing or losing yourself in a relationship. He will suggest concrete strategies to try between sessions and check what works. He pays attention to life context, such as caregiving demands, chronic illness, or cultural pressures.
If you want to begin, follow the platform steps to match and schedule. The first conversation usually focuses on what matters most now and what a reasonable next step looks like.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you notice thoughts that fuel anxiety or people-pleasing and then test alternatives in daily life. CBT sessions often include specific exercises and small behavioral experiments to try between meetings.He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotion regulation skills and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and commit to actions that matter. DBT skills are practical tools for handling strong feelings. ACT helps when you want to stop being driven by avoidance and start moving toward what matters.
Figuring out which approach fits is part of the work. He will talk with you about your goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you decide which methods to emphasize and adjust them as you go.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a break, or avoiding travel time. The focus is on practical support that can be applied between meetings, no matter the delivery method.
