Mi Jung uses a range of approaches to meet individual needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build different coping skills.

Attachment-Based and client-centered ideas inform her focus on understanding relationship patterns and creating a respectful, person-focused space for exploration.

She also addresses complex issues such as trauma, addiction, and chronic stress with a combination of skills training and relational work.
Mi Jung helps people navigate parenting strains, caregiver stress, career concerns, and grief. She pays attention to body image, codependency, and commitment or communication problems. She also supports coping with chronic pain, illness, and disability.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting difficult feelings. ACT can help with life changes, anxiety, and motivation by clarifying what matters and building small, consistent actions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms. In practical terms this means setting clear goals, trying behavioral experiments, and practicing new ways of thinking to address depression, anxiety, and sleep problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are useful for managing intense emotions, anger, and relationship conflicts.
Mi Jung treats choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will help clients decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This usually starts with a short assessment and a discussion of practical priorities.
