Bio: I’m Heiin (pronounced as Hane), a bilingual therapist who provides counseling services in both English and Korean. It is a privilege for me to accompany clients on their journeys, witnessing how they navigate through difficult and uncertain times, and ultimately discover their own unique paths to overcome challenges. My desire to become a counselor stemmed from my personal journey through a challenging period in my life. During this time, I grappled with feelings of low self-confidence and a lack of direction and purpose. Pursuing the necessary training and education to become a counselor provided me with an opportunity to delve into my own self-discovery and gain a deeper understanding of who I am. Through this process, I learned to accept and befriend myself. It is important to note that this did not mean I suddenly became completely problem-free or lived in a perpetual state of happiness. However, it did instill in me a newfound trust in myself, allowing me to navigate future difficult periods with greater confidence. I firmly believe that every individual possesses inner strengths that may go unnoticed due to their current life circumstances and obstacles. My primary focus is to assist clients in discovering their true potential and uncovering their innate strengths. By recognizing and tapping into these strengths, I strongly believe that clients can develop new skills and strategies to navigate through challenging times in their lives. In order to create a safe and supportive environment for my clients, I continuously strive to establish a space where they feel comfortable addressing past traumas, various life challenges, and unexpressed emotions.
