As a Korean speaking intern counsellor, I am passionate about supporting individuals through meaningful self-exploration, healing, and personal growth. My counselling philosophy is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and respect for each person’s lived experience. I aim to create a therapeutic space where individuals feel heard, safe, and genuinely supported.
I work with individuals facing challenges such as emotional regulation, life transitions, and identity-related concerns. My approach integrates cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), humanistic therapy, and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), allowing me to tailor sessions to meet the unique needs and goals of each client.
I believe that change happens when people are met with empathy and empowered to understand themselves more fully. Whether someone is building resilience, navigating uncertainty, or simply seeking clarity, I strive to walk alongside them with warmth and professional care.
학생 상담사로서 저는 내담자의 이야기에 귀 기울이며, 진정성 있고 전문적인 태도로 심리적 성장을 지원하는 데 깊은 사명감을 가지고 있습니다. 제 상담은 공감과 존중을 바탕으로 하며, 내담자가 스스로를 이해하고 변화할 수 있는 안전하고 신뢰할 수 있는 공간을 제공하는 것을 가장 중요하게 생각합니다.
상담 과정에서는 인지행동치료(CBT), 인간중심치료(Humanistic Therapy), 변증법적 행동치료(DBT)를 통합하여 사용하며, 내담자의 고유한 필요와 상황에 맞는 개별화된 접근을 지향합니다. 불안, 정체성의 탐색, 감정 조절, 삶의 전환기와 같은 다양한 심리적 어려움 속에서, 내담자가 자기 자신과 더 깊이 연결되고 회복력을 키울 수 있도록 함께하고 있습니다.
저는 사람들이 자신의 내면을 탐색하고 변화의 가능성을 발견하는 과정을 매우 의미 있게 생각합니다. 변화는 작은 이해에서 시작되며, 그 여정에 동행할 수 있다는 것은 제게 큰 책임이자 기쁨입니다.
Depending on your concerns, goals, and needs, I utilize a variety of clinical approaches and techniques to assist you. Including but not limited to:
The focus of person-centred therapy is always on you and not on any diagnosis or categorization. As a Clinical Counsellor, I provide a climate conducive to personal growth and change. Through empathy and trust, our relationship will be productive, genuine, and non-judgemental. Together, we explore your thoughts and feelings, positive or negative, without the risk of rejection or judgement.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the way you think (cognitive) and act (behavioural). CBT helps you to identify the relationship between your thoughts and your feelings. By making small changes to the way you think, you can ultimately change the way you feel.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) helps people to improve and regulate their emotions, create more tolerance of distress and teach the person to be more mindful and present while improving communication and the ability to interact with others.
Humanistic therapy is a type of talk therapy that focuses on the individual's unique potential and capacity for growth, emphasizing self-awareness, self-acceptance, and personal responsibility. It centers on the belief that people are inherently good and strive towards self-actualization, the process of becoming the best version of themselves. This approach views clients holistically, acknowledging their subjective experiences and encouraging them to explore their own inner resources for healing and fulfillment.
