Are you suffering emotionally? Are you having trouble functioning at work or in your relationships? My goal is to understand what you are struggling with and together, over time, we will figure out what you need and how you can be better. I will strive to help you navigate your challenges with emotional poise. I hope that you will be able to make positive changes to your life as result of the therapy process.
I have many tools that can be helpful for understanding yourself and conducting your therapy. I make use of multiple psychological views, including psychodynamic, cognitive behavior therapy, interpersonal and developmental perspectives. I endeavor to tailor our work to evolving understanding of what you need. I can work either in English or in Korean.
Central to my work is developing strong connections with you. I will be very interested in understanding what you are contending with, and will strive to help you. I would like to work with you to help you achieve higher functioning, grow your potential, and feel happy. Please don't hesitate to get help and regain your functioning and well-being.
