My Ideal Client

I work well with a variety of clients who are seeking support for trauma, mood disorders, traumatic brain injury, and acculturation issues. I am native to Korea and have the unique perspective of being able to understand issues and trauma that can be associated with immigration. If you are looking for support and want to ensure the treatment you receive is well-studied and backed by science, then I am a good fit for you.

My Approach to Helping

I am drawn to the integration of standard counseling methods and various mental exercises to offer tangible coping skills. I offer cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness approaches, EMDR, and other modalities tailored to your needs. I have specific experience with TBI.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that people are gifted with a brain capable of remembering from the past, learning in the present, and making positive projections toward the future. Unfortunately, this ability is challenged when the aftermath of traumatic events and unprocessed memories continually trigger fear, anger, or guilt. These emotional disturbances are devastating for health and well-being. I believe that counseling provides opportunities for self-awareness and personal growth within the context of a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship in order to treat traumatic disruptions with the highest quality evidence based practices.
