Life comes with many challenges and complexities that can be difficult to navigate. As we have seen over the past few years, life throws us many curveballs, and sometimes we need extra support. My goal as a counselor is to create a safe, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable yet empowered. My approach to therapy is holistic and trauma-informed to meet you where you are and understand what factors/influences may be present or important to you. Additionally, we will incorporate appropriate evidence-based practices (i.e. CBT, solution-focused, etc.) that would be most helpful to you and your goals for therapy.
I have a passion for working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, communication skills, and those within the LGBTQ+ community. As a Korean American transracial adoptee, I also have a passion for working with adoptees or those who may be exploring their identities (racial, cultural, gender, sexuality, etc).
Whether you are navigating the complex paths of identity, battling mental health struggles, or seeking a space to explore and understand yourself better, my dedication is unwavering. Your courage to seek help is the first step toward transformation, and I am honored to accompany you on this path to healing & growth.

As a transracial adoptee and therapist, my unique background is both my strength and my guide. Growing up, I navigated the complex layers of identity, belonging, and culture that accompany being raised by a family of a different race. These personal experiences have become the foundation of my empathy and understanding in my work with other adoptees.
