Getting to know Esther Kang

Hi there, I'm Esther! My name is Esther Kang, and I am a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Loma Linda University. I seek to create a safe, caring, and supportive environment to support you through your journey of healing. I believe it’s important to work collaboratively to reduce distress and emotional pain related to issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship concerns. My approach I primarily use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and psychotherapy modalities. I value person-centered and strength-based care. My focus I work with adults, older adults, and teenagers experiencing major life transitions, identity challenges, depression, grief, low self-esteem, work stress, relationship problems, and anxiety. My communication style I strive to offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space that honors each person’s journey toward health and wholeness. My professional goal is to support people in making positive changes toward greater mental and emotional strength. My journey to mental healthcare I enjoy helping people understand themselves better and navigate challenging times. Life is difficult, and sometimes all it takes is someone to be there to help along the way. My goals for you I work with people to identify their goals and values in life and to uncover barriers and stressors they face. Together, we develop coping strategies to overcome obstacles. My first session with you During our initial sessions, we will explore the issues that bring you to therapy and your personal goals. We will create a plan to address them. I know starting therapy takes courage, but it will be well worth the investment in your personal growth and healing.
