You may be carrying pain that's hard to put into words. Perhaps it's the echo of past trauma, the fog of anxiety or depression, or the quiet ache of grief that doesn't seem to shift. Maybe you've spent years trying to hold everything together, all while feeling like you're falling apart inside. You're tired—of the overthinking, the emotional numbness, the disconnect in your relationships, the constant inner critic. You long for relief, but more than that, you want clarity, self-compassion, and a sense of wholeness. That's where we begin.

Julie Ryu
Psychologist, PsyBA General
Serves Area
I provide person-centered, evidence-based psychological treatments and counselling to clients from all walks of life. Clients often request short to medium term interventions to lessen the effects of their psychological trauma or recent and/or old events on their lives. Clients attend sessions with clinical diagnoses or their current experiences of moderate to severe level of symptoms leading to their interest in receiving assessments for formal diagnoses. Specific needs and goals of therapy are usually discussed in the first session during intake assessment. I can also provide sessions in Korean.
