Stefanie Young

Stefanie Young

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • Akron, OH


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.

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 an Anxiety Therapist in Canton, OH

Searching for therapists in Canton starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Canton therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and population experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a smaller city like Canton, the number of nearby in-person therapists may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Ohio while still letting you choose someone licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Canton can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you start care. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to compare fit, coverage, and availability in one place.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
