About

I have a Master of Social Welfare from UCLA and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Southern California and have been practicing for the past 21 years. I am Korean-American. I have experience working with many diverse populations including hospital settings including end of life and crisis, geriatric (elderly), transitional aged youth (16-25 years old), substance use counseling, severely and persistently mentally ill, those with moderate symptoms, working professionals, adults and diverse ethnic groups. I have an eclectic style and I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). I have seen the power of EMDR at work with mild trauma to severe trauma, domestic violence, phobias, abandonment issues, relationship issues, grief, and more. I hope to be able to work with you on your journey to healing!
