As a queer, Korean transracial adoptee, I understand the complexities of mixed and intersectional identities. I specialize in supporting teens and young adults navigating racial identity formation, minority stress, intergenerational trauma, anxiety, and depression. My clients often struggle with feeling connected in relationships or forming new, meaningful ones. They may find it hard to cope with the overwhelm of our ever-changing world. I strive to create a space where clients feel seen and understood. I utilize a systems-based approach that acknowledges both the struggles and resiliencies within marginalized communities.

I am passionate about working with clients to help them overcome periods of transition and stress with cultural responsiveness, compassion, and sensitivity. I utilize an eclectic approach of EMDR (for trauma and related symptoms) and narrative-style therapy (focused on story) to create a unique relationship with each person.

As a social worker rooted in social justice and anti-colonial practice, I believe in the power of story, ancestral knowledge, and community to help clients thrive. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit. I’m committed to healing and liberation through our meaningful connection together.
