I’m passionate about working with people from diverse backgrounds and journeying alongside adolescents, adults, and families to find meaning and empowerment in their life experiences. I have a particular interest in working with first-generation immigrant parents and their second-generation children as well as exploring the intersection of counseling and neuroscience to tailor empirically supported treatments. I hold a collaborative approach to counseling, seeking to holistically understand individuals and uphold their inherent personhood.

저는 이민 1세대 부모와 2세대 자녀들이 문화적으로 부딪치는 다양한 문제들을 가족상담을 통해 해결하고 관계 회복을 돕는 것에 관심을 갖고 있습니다. 가족상담 외에도 청소년, 성인을 대상으로 하는 상담도 하고 있습니다. 또한 상담과 신경학의 교차점에 관심이 있으며, 이를 통해 경험적으로 입증된 치료법을 제공하고자 합니다. 그리고 개인을 전체적으로 이해하고 다양성에 따른 문제들을 통찰하려고 노력합니다.
