About Me

    People come to therapy with strengths and skills that have helped them to survive up until meeting me, and I find that it is often better to work with existing tools rather than tearing down entire foundations. As a clinician, I can help you to decide what stays, what goes, what skills should be emphasized, and what skills should be learned. I have supported others to solve relationship problems, establish effective coping systems, with adjusting to difficult life experiences and spaces. We are both experts in the room and I will use my understandings of integrative practices to help build the dream that you imagine for yourself.

    My clinical methods are eclectic, integrative, and strengths-based, incorporating a variety of methods such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), trauma informed practices, culturally responsive care, and treatment plans that are unique to the person in services. I enjoy facilitating empowerment as well as providing hope for change against systematic issues.

    Change, difficult life experiences, and mental illness can throw our lives off balance while providing opportunities to transform. I am simply here to help guide individuals back to their preferred selves, where they are prepared to handle both successes. My goal is to help others see their potential and I would love to speak with you about starting services.

    About Me

      Navigating through life’s complexities can often feel like being lost in a fog, and in today’s fast-paced society, stress can quickly become overwhelming. As a therapist with over a decade of experience in mental health across various levels, I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and teens discover and tap into their strengths, enabling a focused approach to enhance their mental well-being. My commitment extends to assisting clients in managing a range of emotional challenges including depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma.

      I employ a diverse array of evidence-based therapeutic modalities tailored to the specific needs of each client. My toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques. These approaches help clients develop coping strategies that promote resilience and personal growth. Additionally, my practice is enriched by my completion of Gottman Level 1 training, which equips me to support couples in navigating their relationships through improved communication and understanding.

      Therapy, as I view it, is a journey of exploration and healing. I strive to create a safe and open environment where individuals, couples, and teens can freely express themselves and work towards achieving their therapeutic goals. My passion for mental health drives my practice, and I am motivated by the profound impact positive change can have on the lives of those I work with. Together, we will navigate the challenges of life, clearing the fog and moving towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.

        About Me (she/her)

          As a dedicated and compassionate counselor, I am committed to helping individuals of all ages navigate life’s challenges and develop the tools they need to thrive. I recently graduated with a Master of Science in Counseling from Johns Hopkins University, where I gained comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in providing therapeutic support for individuals and families.

          I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients through my internships, which took place across three different schools, allowing me to support children and adolescents from kindergarten through 12th grade. This experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the challenges students face at various stages of their educational journey.

          In addition to my work with minors, I also offer therapy for adults, helping them address a variety of issues such as stress, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and more. Whether you are navigating personal struggles, career transitions, or emotional hurdles, I am here to help you find a path forward.

          My academic background also includes a degree in Child and Family Studies from Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, where I developed a strong foundation in understanding family dynamics and child development. This international perspective allows me to approach therapy with a culturally sensitive and inclusive mindset, ensuring that each individual feels understood and supported.

          Fluent in Mandarin, Korean, and English, I am able to offer therapy in a variety of languages, providing a comfortable and open environment for individuals and families from diverse cultural backgrounds.

          Whether you’re a child, adolescent, or adult, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your emotions, address challenges, and work toward lasting personal growth.

          每个人的人生旅途中都有喜怒哀乐,也会遇到各种或轻或重的挑战。
          作为一名充满热忱与同理心的心理咨询师,我致力于陪伴来访者一起面对生活的起伏,帮助他们培养内在力量与调节能力,在自我成长的道路上稳步前行。

          我毕业于约翰·霍普金斯大学,获得心理咨询硕士学位,系统学习了个体与家庭心理咨询的理论与实务,并在多样化的临床实践中积累了丰富的经验。在此期间,我曾在不同阶段的学校实习,更深入地了解了儿童与青少年在学业、人际关系及情绪发展方面所面临的独特挑战。

          除了与未成年人工作,我也为成年人提供心理咨询服务,协助他们应对压力、关系困扰、焦虑、抑郁等议题。无论您正经历生活的转折、情绪的波动,或是在寻找更深层的自我理解,我都愿意与您携手同行,一起探索属于您的人生方向。

          寻找光,找到光!
