About
I am passionate about working with clients in their journey toward healing, connection, personal growth, and improved mental, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual well-being.
If you are experiencing emotional and relational difficulties, betrayal trauma, religious trauma, anxiety, depression, or struggling to process traumatic experiences or challenging relationships, then I can help to create a safe, non-judgmental, and therapeutic space where you can navigate through your challenges with support and guidance.
Specializing in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Prepare/Enrich certified, I bring an empirically validated approach that fosters a secure environment for couples to heal and grow in their relationship.
I am EMDR-trained (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which is an evidence-based treatment for trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Being a Certified Partner Trauma Therapist (CPTT)– Candidate, I also work with people struggling with their partner’s infidelity.
Before becoming a licensed therapist, I was a full-time minister and am currently supporting people who have experienced religious trauma, spiritual abuse, or church hurt from dysfunctional, abusive, or highly controlling leaders, churches, and religion.
With a background in education, advocacy, and pastoral work spanning over thirty years, I impacted the lives of thousands of families, couples, and individuals. Committed to continuous growth, I pursued an advanced education, culminating in becoming a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I am also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for the States of New York and Florida.
Being bicultural and fluent in conversational Korean, I recognize and respect the unique struggles, journeys, and stories of each individual. If you are in distress and seeking support, I welcome the opportunity to accompany you on your journey towards healing, hope, and restoration.
What I Do in My Free Time
In my free time, I like to play tennis, read graphic novels, and try different foods.
