Getting to know Christy Younes

Feeling on edge or worn out by stress, you can’t shut off? I work with youth-adults, military service members, and veterans who carry trauma in the body and mind. I provide trauma-informed, body-aware care with active collaboration and clear plans for real-world relief. Reach out, and we’ll start with what matters. My approach I use practical trauma-informed techniques that include body awareness, nervous system regulation, and cognitive techniques to calm chronic stress, sleep disruption, and vigilance. I adapt care based on your goals and pace, and we track progress with clear steps that improve daily functioning at work and in relationships. My focus I support youth - adults, active duty service members, and veterans managing trauma, chronic stress, vigilance, and disrupted sleep. We build personalized plans that reduce distress and increase control in routines, work, and relationships. You can expect direct care that moves fast from insight to real-world results. My communication style I listen with focus, ask clear questions, and give direct feedback. I stay grounded, structured, and steady in difficult moments. Sessions emphasize calm, clarity, and shared control of direction. You’ll always know the goal, the steps, and your role in moving forward. My journey to mental healthcare This work comes from years inside systems that treat stress, trauma, pain, and survival mode symptoms. Supporting trauma-based communities shaped my focus on care that includes both the body and mind. The drive remains steady, making treatment human, direct, and built for real-life change. My goals for you Therapy works when goals are yours, get defined in the open, and map to daily actions. We build goals for sleep, stress reduction, boundaries, and relationships. Plans evolve, stay relevant, and maintain momentum with routine progress checks and shared ownership of outcomes.
