My background is in systems theory; the idea that everyone is connected to those around them, with influence between all those people, organizations, and cultures. My approach to therapy is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy but I also see a need for insight into the meaning that we make/have made of things and how that impacts our present. Therapy then, involves opening space for a person to increase awareness of their own process and to see alternative perspectives, thereby empowered to make different life decisions. It is so exciting to see someone realize that they have the power to change their perspective and their life!

안녕하세요? 최윤정 상담사입니다. 저는 우울증, 각종 외상 후 스트레스 장애, 강박장애, 불안 관련 장애 및 나르시시스트적 학대 피해자들을 전문적으로 상담하고 있습니다. 우리의 머리로는 기억할 수 없으나, 우리 신체와 신경계는 과거 고통스러운 순간을 기억하고 있으며, 상황에 따라서 우리 몸에 남아있는 기억들이 우리가 인지 하지 못하는 순간 발현하여 우리를 괴롭게 만듭니다. 우리는 기억 하지 못하지만, 과거의 어떤 경험을 통하여서 우리의 몸이 방어적 반응을 보이는 것입니다. 저는 우리의 신체와 신경계가 고통스러운 과거의 경험을 어떻게 기억하는지 이해하고, 본인 자신도 이해하기 어려운 상황을 극복해 나갈 수 있도록 도와 드릴 수 있습니다. 과거에 묶여 살아가는 것이 아니라 현재를 느끼며 살아갈 수 있도록 하는 것이 상담의 목표입니다.

How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
