English
| 한국어 My ideal clients are Korean immigrants navigating the challenges of cultural adjustment and intergenerational conflicts. I also specialize in supporting older adults, drawing from over 20 years of experience as a social worker working closely with this population. Older clients may face isolation, grief, or difficulties adapting to changes in family dynamics and lifestyle. I understand that taking the first step toward seeking help can feel overwhelming, especially in a new cultural environment where mental health care may carry stigma. I want my clients to know they are not alone—I am here to listen and walk alongside them.
My practice is rooted in compassion and non-judgment. I offer a culturally and linguistically sensitive space where clients can feel safe and understood. My holistic approach integrates emotional support with practical guidance, connecting clients to community resources and services tailored to their needs.
As an immigrant myself, I can deeply relate to my clients' experiences of cultural transition and identity challenges. Beyond my professional role, I am also a mother of two sons in their 10s and 20s, and a primary caregiver for my parents, who are in their 80s.These personal experiences allow me to empathize with the complexities of immigrant family life.
