Great to meet you!

Hello, 안녕하세요

I am Paul (기영) Song, Korean American licensed mental health counselor in Massachusetts (LMHC). I work with anyone struggling with OCD, anxiety, and depression, including the specific weight of navigating multiple cultures. If you're looking for a psychotherapist who speaks your language, literally and culturally, I am a native speaker of both English and Korean (and conversational in Mandarin). I accept insurance (including Aetna, Cigna, Carelon, and Harvard Pilgrim), and I offer a sliding scale for those who qualify.

My approach to therapy

If you're looking for a psychotherapist who speaks your language, literally and culturally, I am a native speaker in both English and Korean (and conversational in Mandarin), and I have firsthand experience of carrying multiple cultures. I use structured, evidence-based approaches like CBT, ERP(Exposure and Response Prevention) for OCD, and SFBT (Solution-Focused Brief Therapy), so sessions are about understanding your patterns and making real changes. I trained in hospital psychiatry settings such as Boston Medical Center, so I'm comfortable with a wide range of clinical needs.

What you can expect from me

Expect an honest, low-pressure conversation. I'll ask about what brought you in, what's been getting in the way, and what you're hoping to change. You don't need to have a clear answer; that's exactly what the first session is for. If you want to talk before booking, I offer a free 15-minute consultation, no commitment required.
