Greetings, my name is Shelton Young, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker; and I serve as the School Therapist here at Welborn Academy of Science and Technology. Over the years, I have provided services in child protection, day treatment settings, schools, private practice, and a university counseling center. I use a plethora of therapeutic techniques and modalities to deliver culturally adaptive and trauma-informed mental health services. 

 The Mental Health Services Program Offers the following:

• Individual Therapy
• Group Therapy
• Referrals to Community Providers
• Wildcat Walk-In Hours
• I am aware that situations requiring immediate attention can occur. Wildcat Walk-ins are walk-in blocks where students can access services without an appointment during a crisis. 
• Workshops/Outreach
• I lead workshops on coping, increasing distress tolerance, mindfulness meditation, and decreasing the stigma regarding mental health within the school.
