About Yoonhee

Yoonhee Kang is a licensed marriage and family therapist who works with families and adults dealing with relationship stress and life changes. She speaks English and Korean and brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions. Parents and partners often come to her when routines break down or tension grows at home.

She aims to create clear, practical steps so families can move forward together. Yoonhee draws from several proven approaches to tailor work to each situation.

Background and approach

She uses Attachment-Based Therapy to map how past bonds affect current relationships. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) guides couples toward stronger emotional connection, and EMDR is used when trauma memories get in the way of daily life.

In sessions she listens for strengths and small changes clients can make right away. Conversations are direct and grounded, focused on what will improve family life and parenting day to day. She treats concerns like stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, bipolar disorder, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping troubles, and career stress.

Her background includes clinical practice in Oklahoma and supervision experience as an LMFT supervisor. She also supports people facing attachment issues, blended family challenges, adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and body image concerns. Yoonhee believes therapy is a collaborative process and that clients know important parts of their story.

To begin, she asks about immediate priorities and works with each household to set manageable goals. Sessions can include problem-solving, emotional processing, and skills practice aimed at day-to-day improvements in family functioning.

Online approaches that fit family needs

Yoonhee commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early bonds shape current relationships. That approach helps identify patterns that repeat in couples and families and shows ways to create safer connections. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to teach practical tools for changing stressful thought patterns and daily habits that affect mood and behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and symptoms, and then suggest a mix of methods that make sense. The plan can shift as needs change, and decisions are made collaboratively to keep therapy focused and useful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for parents and partners to fit therapy around school, work, and caregiving. Remote formats also allow for follow-up between meetings with brief messages or chats to support practice of new skills.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
