Hi there, I'm Cecilia! I'm a Korean American Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Honest Ground Therapy. I help adult women navigate trauma, anxiety, depression and life transitions through compassionate, culturally responsive care. Together, we'll create a space where you feel deeply seen, understood and supported. My focus I specialize in working with adult women experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and life transitions. I especially enjoy supporting women of color, LGBTQ+ clients and neurodivergent individuals as they reconnect with themselves, strengthen boundaries and build more fulfilling lives. My approach My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative and grounded in curiosity. I integrate EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), DBT and somatic practices to help clients understand their nervous system, heal old wounds and create meaningful, lasting change at a safe pace. My communication style Clients often describe me as warm, genuine and direct. I balance compassion with honesty, creating a space where you can be vulnerable while also feeling challenged to grow. I value authenticity, collaboration and helping you feel understood without judgment. My journey to mental healthcare I've experienced seasons of life that challenged me and showed me the value of having a safe, compassionate space to heal. Those experiences, combined with my clinical training, inspired me to become a therapist. Today, I'm passionate about helping women feel deeply understood, reconnect with themselves and find healing. My goals for you We'll work together to identify what matters most to you and create goals that reflect your values. I help clients build insight, regulate their nervous system, process trauma and develop practical tools that support change. Our first session Our first session is about getting to know you. We'll explore what brings you to therapy, your history, your strengths and what you hope to gain.
