I am an immigrant Korean woman (She/Her), and Expressive Arts Therapist (ExAT), Educator, Facilitator, and Artist living in Toronto. I am presently working in the Korean community in the GTA. I have 6 years of experience facilitating group ExAT workshops and have worked as an individual counsellor in the Korean community during COVID-19 Pandemic. Currently, I am studying to become a Spiritual Care Psychotherapist in the MPS program (Knox College, U of T) to expand my future. I love to share diverse ways of working with the arts in a way that brings joy and happiness to people. I have a special interest in working with immigrant woman who are facing mid- life crisis, anxiety, depression, family, cultural and systemic stress. I support people in choosing ways to improve their lives through the arts. I am also involved with the Korean community who are facing isolation issues.
