Hello, I'm Art, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who discovered a passion for helping others later in life. My approach is grounded in motivational interviewing and person-centered therapy, creating a supportive environment where trust, acceptance, and meaningful change can flourish.

As a combat veteran, I understand how difficult it can be to take the first step toward seeking help. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, clarify your goals, and grow into the person you want to become.

I have worked with adults, couples, families, and adolescents across a variety of clinical settings, supporting individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, psychosis, and life transitions. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) along with the Flash Technique to help clients process difficult experiences while minimizing emotional overwhelm.

I also offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), an integrative treatment that can help deepen insight, promote healing, and support lasting change when traditional approaches alone may not be enough.

My goal is to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and respect as you move toward greater healing, resilience, and self-discovery.

Dr. Jeongmi Moon

Psychologist

Virtual • San Diego, CA


Clients : Creative field, writers, screen writers, actors, films makers.

I’m a bilingual (English/Korean) licensed clinical psychologist with over 13+ years of experience helping adults (20 and older) navigate anxiety, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, identity questions, and major life transitions.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both evidence-based techniques and a deep respect for the human spirit. I integrate therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based methods with holistic tools drawn from meditation, Eastern/Western philosophy, and positive psychology. This allows me to support you not just in coping with challenges—but in creating a more meaningful, centered life.

I especially enjoy working with creatives, professionals, and individuals exploring cultural or gender identity. Whether you’re dealing with racing thoughts, emotional exhaustion, shifting roles, or inner conflict, we’ll work together to clarify what matters most to you and how to move forward with intention. Therapy doesn’t have to be cold or clinical—it can be a dynamic, reflective process that helps you reconnect with your values and sense of possibility.

Taking the first step can feel uncertain, but if you’re ready to talk, I’m here to listen. You deserve support that aligns with both your inner world and everyday life. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a consultation. I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
