ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Sebastopol, 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.

As your therapist, I take a collaborative, non-judgmental, experiential approach to psychotherapy. I will join you in creating a deeper understanding of yourself and your life by helping you organize your emotions and attuning to the sensations throughout your body. Through our work, you will gain a wholesome sense of who you are. With safety and connection we will build tolerance to life’s experiences. Allowing you to engage fully with life through the trust that is created within yourself.

Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, I strive to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Together, we will identify your strengths, explore barriers to your well-being, and work toward achieving your personal goals at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe that healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients can safely explore life's challenges while building the skills and confidence to create meaningful change.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families using an integrative, client-centered approach tailored to each individual's unique needs, strengths, and goals. Drawing from evidence-based therapeutic modalities, I help clients navigate a wide range of emotional and mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, family conflict, relationship challenges, self-esteem, life transitions, and everyday stressors.

I am committed to empowering clients by recognizing their resilience and helping them build on their existing strengths. Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, I strive to create a collaborative therapeutic relationship that fosters growth, healing, and lasting positive change. It is a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they work toward greater emotional well-being and a more fulfilling life.

As a youth, I recall many instances when I experienced intense anxiety, depression, even suicidal thoughts – but I did so in isolation, without adequate support. Mental health services were not available and not commonly accessed in my community. As a young woman I used dance and movement, and other forms of creative expression (such as writing and singing), as my means to manage emotions. I became a psychotherapist to ensure that I could be supportive to those in similar situations – to help support people in not feeling alone with the difficult aspects of life and relationships. No one should have to fight their mental health battles alone. The integration of somatic (body-focused) psychotherapy has allowed me to support others while giving them the gift that I have discovered through a life of movement – the gift of understanding the role of the body in allowing for healing. Through the use of the body in psychotherapy clients can learn how to find balance in their mind while finding peace in their emotional landscape.
