Therapists in Bellflower, CA

My goal is to guide people restore their self-esteem as a competent individual, build a healthy relationship with others, especially with their spouse and children, and promote lasting change that brings them to feel loved, capable, and alive. It may be a long journey, but by the end of the journey I have seen people moving away from unhealthy vicious cycle of the past and creating more desirable relationships with each other.

I believe that therapy is a sacred space where a client and therapist encounter to make transformative changes as a team. My indescribable joy as a therapist is to witness my clients rise from the misery of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, parenting issues, and troubled relationships. These are my specialties guided by a principle that St. Irenaeus best describes, “a human fully alive is the glory of God.” I help clients connect with their inner potential and resources and build effective coping strategies specific to the personality, lifestyle, and predicament.

In life, people are sometimes feeling stuck, frustrated, or overwhelmed as a result of current life stressors or have been living with long-standing issues. I have often observed that many people don’t remember their inner resources or feel they never have any inner wisdom when they are in challenging situations. I believe that therapeutic process could help people remember their innate resources such as strengths, wisdom, positive emotions, etc.I will support people in improving their lives by gaining personal insights, making healthier choices in difficult times, and allowing for positive change to occur in their lives.

I believe in the adaptive healing power that is innate in all of us. A large part of our negative reactions and self-defeating behavior come from the unconscious, that is outside of our reasoning and willpower. By tapping directly into the unconscious and changing the way some memories are stored in the brain, we can stop reacting and begin responding in an adaptive manner. As a licensed psychologist, I have worked with children and adolescents and their families for the past 20 years. I would love to guide you in your journey of self-discovery and wellness.

때로는 삶이 마치 롤러코스터를 탄 것 같을 때가 있습니다. 어떤 때는 모든 것이 잘 되어 세상에 부러운 것이 없는 것 같다가 한순간에 아래로 한없이 떨어져서 두렵고 몹시 당황스러우며 그 곳에서 헤어나오지 못할 것 같을 때가 있습니다. 이렇게 불안하고 우울하거나 또는 어려움에 처한 분들을 안정되고 희망이 있는 곳으로 가도록 돕고자 합니다. 여러분의 정서적, 육체적, 그리고 영적 회복이 진정한 회복이라고 믿습니다.

저는 12년 이상의 경력을 가진 면허 받은 결혼 및 가족 상담사입니다. 저는 인지행동치료 (CBT), 수용전념치료 (ACT), 그리고 정서중심치료 (EFT) 훈련을 받았으며 어린이, 청소년, 성인들과 함께 자아존중감, 정체성 발달, 인간관계 어려움, 불안, 우울증, ADHD, 트라우마와 같은 문제에 대해 상담하고 있습니다. 특히 그들이 삶의 도전을 극복하도록 도와드리고 더 건강한 관계로 나아갈 수 있도록 돕고 있습니다. 저는 임상 경험을 넘어서, 언어를 공유하지 않는 둘 이상의 당사자 간의 소통 간극을 좁히는 통역자의 역할이 굉장히 매력적이라고 생각합니다. 마찬가지로 저는 심리 상담사로서 개개인이 자신의 감정에 대한 개인 통찰력과 이해를 높이고 다른 사람과의 관계를 더 강화하도록 마음의 언어를 번역하는 일을 돕습니다. 아주 작은 의사 소통 스타일, 관점 및 명확성이 어떻게 개인과 가족의 삶을 크게 변화시켜 치유를 가져오는지 목격하는 것은 저에게 있어 큰 기쁨입니다. 저는 여러분 곁에서 여러분이 미래에 대한 새로운 희망, 신뢰 및 기대를 경험하도록 도와드리기를 희망합니다.

Are you feeling helpless in dealing with your child/teen emotional and behavioral issues? Do you feel lost in connecting with your child/teen? You want to help them but don't know how? I have been working with children, adults, and families for over 15 years to bring out their potential in mindfulness, creativity and relationships through individual and family therapy. Through this process, clients get to know themselves better, in a safe and supportive environment. I develop a therapeutic relationship based on their needs and goals. My experience includes treating individuals with depression, anxiety, anger, and trauma.

I believe the goal of therapy is for the client to feel seen and understood, and that everyone has the capacity for growth and change. By developing a caring, empathic, and trusting relationship with my clients, it becomes possible for the individual to make connections, deepen his/her awareness and gain clarity about relationships, problems and personal patterns. It is through this process that growth and change can be made.

I am passionate about helping people to progress on their life journey toward wellbeing. I believe most of out distress and conflicts stem from maladaptive understanding of self and our perceived needs, of others, the world, and of God. Accordingly, a step toward health begins with increasing self awareness and insight into ourselves, our problems, and the ability to see the reality in growing clarity which result in changed thoughts, feelings and actions.

I understand that life happens to all of us. You can feel overwhelmed by unexpected situations, unfortunate losses and unendurable psychological pains. Exposure to high levels of prolonged stress can lead to feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. Intense anxiety or panic attacks and social isolation are common experiences. Seeking help means that you are ready to work and bring your life into a healthier balance. Through self-acceptance and care, you can gain more tools to improve your lifestyle and relationships. By listening attentively with non-judgmental empathy, I provide ongoing support with therapeutic insight and expertise in a confidential setting.
