Individual therapy

Individual Therapy

Symptoms rarely arrive alone. Anxiety may be connected to perfectionism, family roles, migration, sensory load, trauma, or years of adapting to an environment that did not fit. Therapy gives us room to understand the pattern before deciding what needs to change.

Common themes

Patterns shaped by earlier relationships and trauma

Old experiences that continue to shape safety, intimacy, self-worth, or the way you respond to conflict.

Anxiety, perfectionism, and overcontrol

When achievement, vigilance, responsibility, or self-criticism once helped you function but has become difficult to put down.

Identity, neurodivergence, and living between contexts

ADHD, autism, migration, language, culture, or other differences that change how you experience yourself and how others understand you.

Approach and logistics

Sessions are collaborative and may draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Gestalt therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and trauma-informed care. I consider thoughts, emotions, bodily responses, relationships, culture, and the strategies that helped you adapt, not symptoms in isolation. Individual sessions are 55 minutes and virtual throughout Washington State, in English or Korean.

I am currently accepting inquiries for individual therapy. Availability changes, and a waitlist may be necessary. Please contact me to ask about current openings.

Couples therapy

Couples Therapy

Couples often arrive with a visible problem—arguments, distance, mistrust, or communication. I am interested in the pattern that forms between two people: what each person does to protect the relationship or themselves, how the other responds, and how the same cycle keeps finding new topics. Culture, family expectations, and neurodivergence can all shape that cycle.

What we may examine

Recurring cycles

The pursue-withdraw pattern, escalation, silence, or the same conflict returning under different topics.

Culture, neurodivergence, and different relational languages

Different family expectations, communication styles, emotional languages, or needs around structure and sensory load.

Trust, rupture, and reconnection

Understanding what happened, whether repair is possible, and how to speak about impact without repeating the rupture.

How couples therapy works

I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an attachment-based approach. We slow down the pursue-withdraw pattern, defensiveness, silence, or escalation beneath the argument so each partner can see how the cycle takes over. The purpose is not to assign blame, but to understand what each person is protecting and reaching for.

I am currently accepting inquiries from new couples. Availability changes, and a waitlist may be necessary. Please contact me to ask about current openings.

Fees & insurance

Private Pay & Fees

Individual $250 / 55 min · Couples $350 / 75 min · Free 15-minute consultation

Private pay limits access; I do not want to pretend otherwise. I chose this model so I can maintain a smaller caseload, preserve time for preparation and continued learning, and make clinical decisions without insurer-directed treatment requirements or session limits.

I can provide a superbill for eligible out-of-network services. Reimbursement depends entirely on your individual plan and is not guaranteed.
Out-of-network benefits

Practical details

A diagnosis is not required solely for private-pay billing. A requested superbill generally includes diagnostic and clinical billing information, my NPI (1891517702), and Washington license number (PSYC.PY.61613007). Before beginning services, contact your insurer to ask about your out-of-network deductible, allowed amount, coinsurance, reimbursement requirements, and whether the service you are seeking is eligible. See the FAQ for a step-by-step checklist.

A brief consultation can help us assess practical and clinical fit.
