About Geunia

She focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier and supports people facing major changes like divorce or other transitions. She works in a respectful and compassionate way.
Sessions are adapted to each person's needs and goals rather than following a one-size-fits-all script. Geunia emphasizes small, achievable changes that build confidence over time.

Geunia has four years of professional experience as an LCSW in Oregon. She designs treatment plans that reflect each person’s situation and pace. Her style is practical and encouraging, with room for honest talk about setbacks and progress.

Evidence-based approaches and online care
Geunia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach is structured problem-solving, which breaks down stressful situations into small steps and clear actions to reduce overwhelm. This can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.She also emphasizes skills for emotion regulation and anger management. These techniques teach ways to notice triggers, slow intense reactions, and choose different responses so difficult emotions cause less disruption. That work often pairs well with building self-esteem and addressing guilt or shame.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Geunia will discuss options with each person and adjust methods based on individual goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. The aim is to find what feels doable and effective together.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and a fuller sense of connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, ongoing support, or when a written format helps someone reflect. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
