About me
I’m a therapist and a trauma-specialist. I appreciate that you are prioritizing yourself in this healing journey. Healing might not be easy at the moment, but I will be walking alongside you.
I have been helping those, both men and women, who struggle with childhood trauma or adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), sexual trauma, other PTSD (such as brain injuries), pornography, anxiety, and depression, with or without ADHD symptoms. I support each individual to see himself or herself fully, guiding towards wholeness. I also do premarital counseling to guide individuals or engaged couples to create better, safer home for themselves. Based on the humanistic approaches, Person-Centered and Gestalt Therapies, I integrate Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) into my practice, a framework by Dr. Dan Siegel on how relationships shape who we are. I utilize express therapies, such as sketch, color, letter-writings, and poetry to meet each client’s needs.
I will do my best to support you and hold a space for you to do whatever you need or want. Your tears are welcome. All your feelings are welcome. Both English and Korean available.
