Professional Bio.

 
 

Cura personalis, which means to care for the whole and entirety of a person, through the mind,

body, and spirit, is a fundamental value I bring as I work collaboratively with clients to explore

how these components are interconnected in the healing, therapeutic process. This value has

been an integral foundation to my education and training that I've gained from my B.A. in

Psychology at the University of San Francisco and my current pursual of an M.A. in Clinical

Mental Health Counseling education at Northwestern University.

As a female-identifying Korean American with an immigrant background, I have a particular

affinity in exploring the ways different identities play a role in cultivating unique experiences, as

well as access and perception of mental health concerns. I hold a keen passion in exploring the

unique and intersectional ways our identities can shape our person and specifically, the different

ways mental health can be impacted from such experiences.

Mental health areas I have an ever-growing passion with working with include: bipolar disorder,

eating disorders, anxiety, depression, (racialized) trauma, (minority) stressors, women-related

issues, LGBTQ+ identity exploration, relationship issues, life transitions, as well as grief and

loss. When addressing such mental health concerns, I value incorporating culturally competent

and adaptive approaches from CBT, DBT, to Psychodynamic, within a multicultural and

feminist-oriented framework.

At the Center for Psychology and Wellness, I look forward in supporting and collaborating with

clients in their cura personalis therapeutic journey in growth and healing!
