Intro

Hello and thank you for visiting Prosper Health.  My name is Dr. Kelly Young, and I am a licensed Psychologist in Texas. I am committed to helping you understand yourself better, which leads to personal development and overall health. My goal is to work with you to identify your strengths and areas for growth so we can create a treatment plan that helps you achieve your goals.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

My passion for working with autistic adults is rooted in a deep-seated desire to make a difference. The journey is filled with continuous learning, innovative approaches, and the celebration of diversity. The challenges are significant, but the rewards are immeasurable. Each day offers new opportunities to empower individuals, advocate for their rights, and contribute to their growth and success.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

By using affirming and strength-based approaches I recognize and nurture the inherent strengths of individuals. By focusing on the positive, empowering individuals, and fostering supportive relationships, I help to  create environments that promote growth, resilience, and success. This approach has the power to transform lives for the better.
