Therapy for Korean & Transracial Adoptees

When Belonging Has Always Felt Complicated
Maybe you've spent years trying to understand where you fit.
Maybe you grew up surrounded by love and still felt disconnected from parts of your identity.
Being adopted can hold many truths at the same time. You can love your family and still grieve what was lost. You can feel grateful for your life and still have questions about where you came from. You can feel deeply connected to one culture while wondering where you belong in another.
For Korean and transracial adoptees, race, culture, family, identity, and adoption can become intertwined in ways that are difficult to explain to people who haven't lived it.
You don't have to choose one version of your story for it to be valid.

Does This Sound Familiar?
✓ You've wondered where you fit culturally, racially, or within your family.
✓ You feel disconnected from your heritage or unsure how to reconnect with it.
✓ You've struggled with being perceived differently from the family you grew up in.
✓ Questions about adoption have become more complicated as you've gotten older.
✓ You're navigating relationships with adoptive family, biological family, or both.
✓ You're considering-or have experienced-searching, reunion, or learning more about your origins.
✓ You've experienced grief, anger, curiosity, guilt, or conflicting feelings about your adoption.
✓ You're tired of feeling like you need to be grateful before you're allowed to talk about the harder parts.

How Therapy Can Help
Therapy isn't about deciding how you're supposed to feel about being adopted.
It's a place to explore your experiences without having to protect anyone else's feelings or arrive at a particular conclusion.
Together, we can make space for questions around identity, belonging, culture, family relationships, grief, connection, and the parts of your story that may still feel unfinished.
There doesn't have to be one "right" way to understand your adoption. Therapy can give you room to figure out what it means to you.
A Space That Understands the Complexity
As a Korean adoptee myself, I understand that adoption and identity aren't experiences that fit neatly into a single story.
Questions about culture, belonging, family, loss, connection, and identity can change throughout different stages of life.
My role isn't to tell you what your adoption should mean to you. It's to offer a space where you can explore your own experience honestly, including the complicated, contradictory, and unfinished parts.
You don't need to know exactly what you want to explore before coming to therapy.
Maybe you're carrying questions about identity, family, culture, belonging, or adoption itself. Maybe something has recently brought those questions closer to the surface.
There's room for all of it here.
