Teletherapy for West Hartford, CT

I work with adults of all ages in a highly attuned, caring, and deeply respectful way. I have helped many people overcome painful anxiety, shame, depression, relationship difficulties, job stress, loss, and the challenges of creating a truly meaningful life. As a fully licensed clinical social worker, I offer an effective blend of deep empathy, understanding and considerable training. I enjoy working with adults from all backgrounds and lifestyles, and will tailor my approach to your needs.

The fact that you are here and searching for a therapist is a sign of health. My promise is to make a safe place for you and really listen, support, and guide you. I am interested in your uniqueness, your hidden resources, strategies proven to work, mindfulness-based stress reduction, developing trust in one's internal guidance system, and practices that deepen a sense of connection and purpose. Our relationships are like a mirror where we can learn and grow and heal all wounds. When we have difficulties, we have rich opportunities.

I will provide a safe and nurturing environment where individuals, couples and families can explore ways in which they are stuck and help them find a more fulfilling life. Whether I see an individual or an entire family, I use a relational, solution-focused and collaborative approach that respects and validates client strengths to find solutions. Being a Korean-American with first hand experience living in different countries, I bring a culturally-sensitive and non-judgmental approach to help clients increase insight, identify patterns that no longer are useful and develop a path forward that will bring more fulfillment.

My work is a dynamic blend of all that has profoundly influenced me. My education is in the science of Family Systems and I have 30 years of personal practice and study in Buddhist psychology. My marriage and my relationship with my two young adult children has offered countless teachings and insights into human nature. I am committed to the work of conscious partnerships, mindful parenting, and healing from trauma to live free of anxiety and depression. My work is psychodynamic: integrating psychoanalyic and attachment theories, IFS, contemplative inquiry, meditative practices and relational awareness for healing and happiness.

I have always gained great satisfaction from helping people feel happier and in learning more effective ways to achieve more fulfilling lives. Those clients who are eager and open to learning more about themselves in order to achieve these goals benefit most from my approach as a therapist. I often focus, therefore, on insight, meaning, and symbols (including dream interpretation)in order to help clients establish a more positive and accepting perspective of themselves and others. In therapy, I work with obstacles against achieving these goals that include anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and interpersonal and relationship issues.

Let's be honest, being a human can be really hard! Whether you are struggling with depression/anxiety, relationship issues, or life transitions, you don't have to "human" alone. Perhaps you feel lost or stuck, or you notice patterns of your behavior that prevent you from moving forward. Developing greater insight into who you are, how you became who you are now, and who you want to be, is imperative for personal growth. We as humans have an inherent power to heal ourselves, and in my role, I have the privilege, to be a witness to my client's journey towards self-discovery.

Each of us experience stress, anxiety, depression, and grief throughout life, and the need for love, safety, respect, and nurturing. The question isn't whether you can eliminate these feelings and needs; rather the question to ask is; "How do I take responsibility for fully understanding myself?" I declare that everyone is being called to discover themselves in the deepest sense. "What is your spirit communicating to you?" "What do you need to live a healthy life?" As you ponder these questions, I believe that your pain is what pushes you and your vision is what pulls you through life.

Taking the first steps to find and select a therapist shows great strength.
