Therapists in T2A

Do you find yourself stuck in a loop of self-criticism? Perhaps you never feel enough or accepted. Sometimes you may think that your overwhelming past experiences will never leave you. You might be exhausted from carrying the guilt and shame you don't know how to talk about. Difficult feelings can impact all aspects of life and limit your possibilities. As a Korean-Canadian Psychologist with many intersecting identities, I also understand and work with many challenges faced by BIPOC & LGBTQ+ communities. Your needs matter. You deserve to be recognized and honoured. I will meet you with care and warmth to support you toward healing.

It is ok to not have it all figured out. Reaching out for help is the bravest thing you can do. Let me help you create the space so that you can focus on growth and change. I am here to help you "navigate" this new landscape. This is an opportunity for you to gain a better understanding of yourself, learn new skills to navigate everyday challenges, and improve your well-being. Life is too short to hide issues and challenges. Give your feelings space to breathe. Together we can take steps to move you toward your goals so that you can lead a healthier and happier life.

I have worked in the mental health and addiction field for over 13 years and in private practice for 4 years. I love to support clients who are struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation challenges, executive functioning challenges- like ADHD, relationship troubles, chronic pain, grief and trauma. I see challenges from a holistic perspective and believe that it's important that there is space for emotional processing as well as practical strategies.

I am a certified psychotherapist and counsellor (CCC) and I specialize in individual and couples counselling. I also offer supervision to therapists. I deeply enjoy working with adults and teens and I have more than 12 years experience in the field. I specialize in crisis interventions, couples counselling, family wellness, teens in crisis, and parenting in multicultural organizations. I use inner child work - a transformative approach which helps one identify root causes and gain deep understanding and compassion for oneself. I am deeply touched to have witnessed profound shifts in people's lives and in their relationships.

Embracing Hope, Empowering Growth. I center my therapeutic practice on empathy, respect, and inclusivity, creating a safe and trauma-informed space for individuals to explore their feelings and experiences openly. I am focused on identifying strengths, building resilience, and fostering a sense of empowerment for my clients. Drawing on my extensive clinical experience working with youth and individuals experiencing various mental health challenges, relationship difficulties or complex trauma, I will adapt my therapeutic approach to fit your needs holistically.

I am a creative and holistic oriented counsellor who often works with clients looking to go deeper into their mental health and wellness journey. I often work with clients to soothe and support their nervous system, integrate and heal trauma, find emotional regulation, heal from grief and loss, and rekindle a sense of agency in life. Whether you're experiencing cognitive, emotional or physical symptoms, my hope is that our work together can offer you a soft place to land and find solace, as well as a chance to metabolize past hurts and generate new possibilities for ease and agency in your life.

Accepting new clients - Are you struggling with relationships, ADHD, anxiety, parenting, low-mood, or trauma? I understand that life poses many challenges. I work with clients collaboratively to find ways to cope, overcome, and heal. Through compassion and non-judgement, I work with adults, teens, and couples, addressing various concerns to help you reach your goals.

Having authentic connections can impact our ability to fully engage ourselves in the work needed to create change. I have found that sometimes the most profound, transformative healing takes place within the simplicity & safety of a supportive client-therapist relationship. Authenticity, trust & respect are the guiding principles of my trauma-informed, spiritually sensitive and culturally safe practice. Rooted in positive psychology and mindfulness approaches, my counselling sessions integrate several evidence-based therapies including EMDR for trauma, DBT and CBT for anxiety, narrative & rational emotive informed therapies.
