About Anderson
Anderson Yoon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York and New Jersey with 22 years of professional experience. He works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, career concerns, and depression. Sessions are offered in English and Korean.
Yoon draws on long clinical and academic work to help people sort through immediate problems. He treats symptoms such as panic attacks, mood changes, social anxiety, and work-related stress by focusing on concrete steps people can take between meetings. He also addresses relationship patterns like attachment concerns, communication problems, and difficulty with control.
His background includes a doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania, a master's degree from Oxford, and research experience at Harvard Medical School. He also works as a full-time assistant professor on the tenure track, and that research-informed perspective influences his practice.
In sessions he treats trauma-related concerns including post-traumatic stress and issues from abuse. He helps people manage anger, shame, guilt, and impulsivity, and he supports those coping with divorce or separation. He also works with people wrestling with life purpose, isolation, and workplace problems.
Yoon emphasizes that clients are the experts on their own stories and that therapy is a collaborative effort. To begin, he asks people to name practical goals and tries to break them into small, manageable steps. This approach is intended to make progress feel measurable and relevant to day-to-day life.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Many clinicians draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address stress, anxiety, and trauma. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and patterns; they help with panic, social anxiety, and low mood by teaching practical skills to test and adjust daily thinking. Trauma-focused methods concentrate on processing distressing memories and building coping skills to reduce symptom-driven reactions and intrusive memories. These approaches aim to give specific tools people can use between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and life demands. That means discussing what feels doable, trying options, and adjusting based on what helps in practice rather than promising a single solution up front.
Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people stay engaged with therapy while managing work, family, and life responsibilities. Ask about available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so you know what will fit your routine.
