Let’s take this journey together
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of healthcare experience, including several years focused on mental health care. I work with adults experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, sleep problems, and other psychiatric conditions. I provide culturally competent, respectful care and am fluent in both English and Korean, which allows me to support patients more comfortably in the language they prefer. My goal is to make mental health care feel clear, approachable, and tailored to each person’s background and needs.
I am a Clinical Psychologist dedicated to providing effective, specialized psychological services for Adolescents/Adults. I facilitate Psychological Evaluations/Testing, Psychotherapy, and Mental Health/Performance Coaching. I take an Individualized, Empowerment and Wellness-based approach whereby I incorporate brief, solutions-focused interventions to address the overall psychological needs of a person or family to help reduce suffering and bring about optimal Well-being and long-term Recovery.
Often my caseload is full, however I would be able to match you with one of our Associate Therapists who share the same values and evidenced based approach to care. You would be able to work with these therapists while using your insurance benefits and/or for a low out-of-pocket rate, for those that would prefer to maximize confidentiality and autonomy in their therapy process.
I am a licensed therapist with extensive experience working with first responders and their families. I understand the unique stressors that accompany careers in emergency services, including exposure to trauma, high-stakes decision-making, shift work, and the impact these demands can have on personal relationships and overall well-being.
