I am a bilingual clinical psychologist offering in-person and virtual services to children and adults. I have a background in supervising the delivery of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), providing school based therapy, psychoeducational evaluations, and conducting pediatric evaluations at UCSD. I use evidence based treatment to assist in addressing concerns related to mood, behavior, and social skills and offer an environment for families, siblings, and caregivers who are wanting a space to process family members' mental health needs. Services are offered in Korean and English.
I conduct Developmental and Psychological Evaluations to toddlers, children, and adolescents with a focus on neurodevelopmental disorders (i.e. Autism, Intellectual Developmental Disorder, Learning Disabilities). I also provide therapy for children and adults to address neurodevelopmental disorders, anxiety, mood, and processing life events.
I offer individual therapy and when appropriate, work with the parent-child dyad. The goal is to offer a safe and supportive environment to process concerns and dynamics, discuss strategies, and navigate struggles or transitional life event. The goal is to work collaboratively to identify strategies specific to each person or unit.
