Do you find yourself stuck in a loop of self-criticism? Maybe you feel you are never enough, not accepted, or that overwhelming past experiences will never leave you. You might be exhausted from carrying the guilt and shame you feel you can’t talk about. Difficult feelings can impact all aspects of life and limit your possibilities. As a Korean-Canadian Psychologist with many intersecting identities, I have experienced and understand the unique challenges many communities face. Your needs matter. Your experiences deserve to be recognized and honored. I will meet you with care and warmth to help you move toward healing.

I do not have an "ideal" client. I believe in the importance of showing up as you are and I will do my best to walk alongside you. I specialize in areas of anxiety, perfectionism, boundaries/communication, burnout, and grief.

Do you find yourself struggling with Anxiety, Stress, Trauma, Life Transitions, Grief, Boundaries, Self Esteem, Relationship or Parenting issues? I am offering support to Adults, Teens and Couples that are looking to enrich their connections with themselves, and those in their lives.

As a counsellor, an essential part of my practice is the therapeutic relationship between myself and clients. I understand the difficulty reaching out for support can be, and I hope to bridge that gap by focusing on the person I am connecting with. A trusting, open and comfortable relationship with your counsellor can differentiate between healing and rejecting the process.

Are you struggling with uncomfortable feelings, anxious thoughts or lack of motivation? Are you tired of watching your child struggle and don’t know where else to turn?

Does life keep catching up with you and knocking you off balance? Maybe you’re weighed down by worry, dread, exhaustion, or pain. Sometimes you look around and wonder, how did I get here? You might not recognize your work, relationships, body or home as so many pieces slipped away while you were busy taking care of everything and everyone else. Your empathy and compassion for others is a great strength, and yet there is a cost to caring that impacts your health and well-being. It is possible to feel calm, get unstuck, have the energy to take care of yourself and others, and enjoy a renewed sense of purpose in life again.

I enjoy working with children, teens and adults.

My specialty is Human Sexuality. I'm a Certified Sex Therapist, Psychotherapist and am a retired Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I have 40+ years experience. I was trained, mentored and supervised by Dr. Wardell Pomeroy of the Kinsey Institute. I help my patients achieve their greatest sexual and relationship potential, beyond diagnosis and treatment of their concerns, to reach the most exciting levels of an intimate relationship. I see many patients online. It is efficient and effective, and it permits the intimacy and immediacy of an in-office consultation, from the comfort of your home or office.

Life can be challenging and at times we need support. Asking for help can be a scary task, but you have taken the first step in bettering your life, and I'm so glad you're here.

As a social worker of 28 years, I have spent my career supporting individuals, couples and families navigate through many life experiences from a holistic and strengths-based perspective.
