My Approach To Therapy

I am a Korean American, Korean-Adopted, clinical psychologist with many years of experience working with individuals around healing through a decolonized lens. I have experience working with Indigenous and multicultural communities, adoption (domestic, transnational, and transracial), foster care, complex and developmental trauma, grief, self-esteem, spirituality, depression, anxiety, attachment, racial trauma and oppression, and somatic work.

I take a relational, client-centered, and multicultural/feminist/social justice approach when working with people. I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) who integrates SE with talk therapy and other creative modes of expression (e.g., client centered and synergetic play therapy, writing, bibliotherapy, drawing, dream work). I have completed Phase I and II in Brainspotting.

I strive to offer a safe and nonjudgmental space for exploration, empowerment, creativity, feelings, and movement through a caring therapeutic relationship.

Mission and Vision

Namu Integrative Therapy Services, LLC envisions to provide a safe space for people to explore the complexities of human experience, family systems, oppression, marginalized identities, and integrating holistic and somatic ways of healing ourselves. Through our therapeutic relationship, I hope to help facilitate self-discovery, empowerment, deepening of intuitive and creative resources, and connection to others.

"We recognize that all knowledge is mediated through the body and that feeling is a profound source of information about our lives."
– Audre Lorde
