“I am a very introverted person when it comes to my feelings. I never spoke about how I felt or opened up to anyone about how I truly felt. But once I started therapy with Sumi it changed. I didn’t like it at first not because of her but because it was something new to me but I’m gradually opening up and trying to understand myself more with her help.I don’t think I could’ve done this on my own. I know the road ahead is gonna be a very tough and bumpy road. But thanks to Sumi help I feel like I’m ready to take it on”

Getting to know Sumi Hong

Hi, my name is Sumi. I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California and Georgia, and an AAMFT Approved Supervisor. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the American School of Professional Psychology in the San Francisco Bay Area. I provide telehealth services and clinical mentoring in both Korean and English. Over thirteen years of working with clients, I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate. My therapeutic approach is mindfulness-based humanistic psychology with an emphasis on deep listening. I focus on identifying your strengths and helping you overcome personal and interpersonal obstacles. I also encourage awareness of cultural diversity, authenticity, and honoring differences. I value building a genuine therapeutic relationship where gratitude and mutual respect can flourish. I offer a safe space for you to be open and honest without fear of judgment. I hope we can take this meaningful journey together to experience personal growth and find balance in life.
