I am a Korean transracial adoptee raised in the Pacific Northwest, with over 20 years working in community. I am grateful to be living on the traditional land of the Duwamish people. Passionate about holistic emotional and spiritual healing, I co-create client-led, safe spaces for your healing journey. Believing in the power of understanding our stories, embracing our strengths, self-love, and ancestral gifts and wisdom, I integrate CBT and EMDR (trained in both) into my practice. Healing is sacred and difficult, and you dont have to do it alone. I offer free 30-minute video consultations.
I believe we are stronger and more resilient than we realize, with the power to heal within us. I’m passionate about helping people identify their strengths, patterns & explore the intersectionality of our identities, and understand the power in our stories and ancestors. Rooted in social justice, my work honors the impact of systems and lived experience.
With a strong focus on social justice and race equity, my work addresses the deep impacts of trauma: intergenerational, interpersonal, and communal. I’m enjoy working interested with those affected by ambiguous loss, burn out, transitions, empaths, students, adoptees and People of the Global Majority. Together, we can move towards healing and liberation
