My Story
I have enjoyed providing psychotherapy for over twenty years. I currently maintain a private practice in Peachtree Corners/Norcross, Georgia where I work with individuals, couples, and families in both Korean and English languages. I offer both short and long-term psychotherapy depending on client need. Some people find just a few sessions helpful to resolve an issue while others choose to explore long-standing patterns and struggles over a more extended period of time.
I especially enjoy working with clients on the following issues: Relationship Issues, Introspection/Insight Therapy, Assertiveness, Depression and Anxiety, Grief and Loss, Life Transitions, Addiction, Domestic Partner Violence, Adult ADD, Adolescent and Parental Issues, LGBTQ/Sexual Identity Issues (from open and affirming perspectives) and Personal Growth and Development.
As a second generation Korean American, I have a unique perspective on working through multicultural complexities that comes with working with Asian and Asian American families.
Outside of the office, I enjoy playing golf, being a car enthusiast, as well as fostering friendships old and new.
Fee: $150-$180 per session
