My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, understood, and connected to their own inner wisdom.

I’m a bilingual (English/Korean) licensed clinical psychologist with over 13+ years of experience helping adults (20 and older) navigate anxiety, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, identity questions, and major life transitions.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both evidence-based techniques and a deep respect for the human spirit. I integrate therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based methods with holistic tools drawn from meditation, Eastern/Western philosophy, and positive psychology. This allows me to support you not just in coping with challenges—but in creating a more meaningful, centered life.
I especially enjoy working with creatives, professionals, and individuals exploring cultural or gender identity. Whether you’re dealing with racing thoughts, emotional exhaustion, shifting roles, or inner conflict, we’ll work together to clarify what matters most to you and how to move forward with intention. Therapy doesn’t have to be cold or clinical—it can be a dynamic, reflective process that helps you reconnect with your values and sense of possibility.
Taking the first step can feel uncertain, but if you’re ready to talk, I’m here to listen. You deserve support that aligns with both your inner world and everyday life. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a consultation. I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

You don’t have to keep forcing yourself to fit into a world that wasn’t built for your brain.

As a neurodivergent Clinical Psychologist (PhD) with eight years of clinical experience and specialized training in ADHD and autism—including a postdoctoral residency at Kaiser Permanente focused on autism assessment—I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my work. I provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy for adolescents and adults navigating ADHD, autism, burnout, trauma, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, life transitions, and identity-related concerns.
If you’re a woman or mother trying to hold it all together through the messy, beautiful realities of life’s changes, you’ve found a safe place to land. I specialize in supporting women and moms through maternal mental health and the big transitions that can leave you feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. Whatever you’re carrying right now, you don’t have to carry it alone.

My background spans behavioral health, medical social work, hospice, and community‐based services. I have worked in hospitals, group homes, county systems of care, and multidisciplinary teams. This broad experience allows me to understand the emotional, social, medical, and environmental factors that shape a person’s well‐being — and to tailor treatment to the whole person.
