School is supposed to be a chapter you're lucky to be in (the years people romanticize, the program you worked hard to get into, the path you chose for yourself), which can make it harder to say out loud when it doesn't feel that way. Whether it's anxiety that won't quit, a low-grade numbness you can't explain, pressure to perform that's become suffocating, or the unsettling sense that you're on a path someone else chose for you, these aren't things you should have to push through alone. They're worth understanding. I'm a Harvard-trained psychiatrist who does both medication management and in-depth psychotherapy. With me, you're not bouncing between a prescriber you see for fifteen minutes and a therapist who doesn't know what you're taking. I work with the whole picture. That means we talk. Really talk. About what's going on, what's underneath it, and what you actually want (not just what looks good on a transcript). Before medicine, I went to both law school and medical school (two of the longer and more punishing graduate trainings there are), so the strain of staying functional while something underneath isn't working is familiar to me from the inside, not from a textbook. My style is warm but direct. I'm not going to sit silently and wait for you to fill the space, and I'm not going to hand you a worksheet and call it therapy. I pay attention to what you need: sometimes that's a push, sometimes it's room to breathe, sometimes it's someone who will tell you the thing no one else has said yet. I'm also an Asian American psychiatrist with a background in law. I founded The Jeong Center around a Korean concept (jeong (정)) the deep bond that forms when two people share real time and presence together. I have particular experience working with anxiety, depression, panic, difficult relationship patterns, and unforgiving professional expectations. Offices in Brookline and Downtown Boston. Telehealth available. INSURANCE & FEES I'm an out-of-network physician, but most Boston-area student health insurance plans provide out-of-network benefits that can be used to cover some or even most of my fees.

A creative, compassionate space to explore your story, express emotions, and move toward healing. We ground in relational and healing-centered approaches and blend traditional psychotherapy with expressive arts and embodied practices to support trauma recovery, emotional well-being, and personal growth—no art experience needed, just come as you are.

Sometimes we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious. We might notice patterns and struggle to understand them. Together, we will work collaboratively to build skills to best meet your needs, hopes, and goals while exploring and building insight to better understand yourself. Our work will support you as you navigate different life phases, relationships, and environments. I specialize in working with individuals traversing life transitions (school, work, moving, navigating change, stress), anxiety, grief and loss, familial or relationship dynamics, and identity exploration. I have extensive training and experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community. My approach to psychotherapy is relational and psychodynamic, while utilizing other modalities such as CBT, Mindfulness techniques, techniques of Grief Therapy, and Expressive Therapies when helpful. I have an individualized and strengths-based framework, recognizing the centrality of the mind-body connection and the importance of holistic care. I work with people across the spectrums of gender, race, sexuality, age, and class. I strive to create a safe and accessible space for all identities, body types, and abilities. I offer therapy for a range of experiences including: anxiety, self-esteem, navigating life transitions, identity, family dynamics, relationships, grief and loss, and trauma.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced training at McLean Hospital, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and mentalization-based therapy (MBT). I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, emotion regulation difficulties, relationship and interpersonal challenges, self-esteem concerns, and recurring patterns of coping or behavior. My approach combines evidence-based behavioral strategies with relational and insight-oriented therapy. I draw from DBT, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), MBT, and psychodynamic therapy to help clients better understand the patterns underlying their difficulties while developing practical skills to respond differently. I aim to create a collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel understood and supported while also being challenged to make meaningful changes in their lives and relationships.

I work as a staff psychologist at CampusCare Counseling, which serves exclusively young adults. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process that can promote self-acceptance, awareness of emotional experiences, and greater understanding of relational patterns.

To help achieve this, my practice incorporates skills building and insight development with consideration of client’s values and needs.

I work as a psychologist at CampusCare Counseling, offering quality mental health services to young adults. Foremost, I am trauma-informed in my approach. This means I work with clients to build trust, taking into consideration personal and socio-cultural factors, with the goal of forming a therapeutic relationship that empowers clients and allows their authentic selves to be in the therapy space.

When clinically indicated, I pull from my experience and training with trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and EMDR. Additionally, I use psychodynamic, existential, and feminist perspectives to inform my work.

I work at CampusCare Counseling, offering quality mental health services to young adults. My therapeutic work takes a largely integrative approach including, but not limited to, the use of psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, exposure and response prevention, and acceptance and commitment therapeutic interventions. I work through a humanistic and client-centered lens, drawing from many concepts of internal family systems therapy. I believe that at our core, we are all inherently “good,” but our unique life experiences can lead us to adopt beliefs, behaviors, and coping strategies that may be healthy at times, or harmful at others. For this reason, I believe it is essential to explore the relationships and events that shaped distressing thoughts or unwanted behaviors to facilitate meaningful change. I hold unconditional positive regard for my clients, utilizing a trauma-informed approach to help college students gain a deeper understanding of themselves and a genuine appreciation for all the parts that make them who they are. It is my belief that with self-insight and self-love present, transformation, healing, and relief are always within reach.

College life can be exciting—and overwhelming. Between classes, relationships, family expectations, and figuring out who you are and where you’re headed, it’s easy to feel stressed, stuck, or unsure. My approach to therapy starts with really listening and working together, so you feel understood and supported from the beginning. In our first few sessions, we’ll talk about what’s been tough lately, what you want to change, and what might be getting in the way. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers right away—it’s about creating a space where you can explore, reflect, and grow at your own pace. I tailor therapy to each person, drawing from different approaches based on what works best for you. Whether you’re dealing with stress or anxiety, feeling down, struggling with relationships (romantic, friendships, or family), managing academics and time, adjusting to a big life transition, or trying to understand patterns that keep showing up, we’ll work together to help you build skills and tap into strengths you already have.
