Great to meet you!

Welcome, I’m glad you’re here. Are you overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in negative thought patterns, or feeling distant from yourself or others? As a trauma-informed therapist, I support individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, cultural identity, and relational stress. I specialize in helping clients explore the emotional patterns shaped by early experiences, family dynamics, and intergenerational expectations particularly in immigrant and multicultural families.

My approach to therapy

I’m a Clinical Social Worker licensed in CA and WA with 10+ years of experience. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in models like CBT, ACT, IFS, EMDR, and mindfulness. I also offer bilingual therapy in Korean.

What you can expect from me

Therapy with me is a space to slow down, explore what’s keeping you stuck, and reconnect with your inner resilience. You are not your diagnosis. You are a whole person, worthy of healing and clarity. If you’re ready to start, I’d be honored to work with you.
