Mee-Hyea Kim

I am trained in Modern Psychoanalysis, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and Gottman couples therapy, and I work with adults and couples from all religions, cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds. I have 10 years of experience as a licensed professional counselor in New Jersey. I help couples discover the negative cycle happening in their relationship, nagivate communicating in a healthy manner, how to show empathy and mutual respect and how to de escalate and repair after repeat arguments. I have extensive experience working with high functioning individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, work stress, life transitions, parenting conflicts, grief, care giver burn out, relationship/family stress and existential stress.

I am here to listen to your story, to help you navigate through past traumas and experiences to allow you break free from unhealthy patterns that cause anxiety, depression, panic, and stress. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, understood and accepted and that therapy is a place where you come to heal old unresolved patterns and learn how to live life to the fullest.

My therapeutic approach is to partner with you in a supportive, non-judgmental, down to earth and thought-provoking way which allows you to develop and foster a positive change in your life as well as learn mindfulness and healthy coping skills. Sessions with me will allow you to truly explore your current day stressors and identify where you are "stuck" and how to move past old unhealthy coping strategies and live a more intentional and joyful life.
