About Yaeeun
Yaeeun Ji is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with three years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, bipolar mood challenges, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, and life transitions. She provides therapy in English and Korean and accepts international clients.
Ji uses straightforward, person-focused conversations to help people work through what feels overwhelming. She relies on approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavior techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Sessions often involve identifying patterns, learning practical skills, and trying small behavior changes between meetings.
Her training includes a Master’s degree in Psychological Mental Health Counseling from Columbia University. Ji notes experience supporting people with PTSD, psychosis, severe mood disorders, and addiction-related concerns. She emphasizes that clients know their own stories and brings a respectful, problem-solving style to sessions.
When anger is part of the problem, Ji helps clients notice triggers and build clear ways to respond differently. Work may include practicing breathing and grounding, spotting thought patterns that fuel anger, and rehearsing new reactions for difficult conversations. She also addresses underlying issues such as shame, abandonment, or relationship stress that can deepen resentment.
People who want practical tools and time to talk through painful moments may find this approach helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site’s online therapy options.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Yaeeun Ji commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques in her work. CBT helps people identify and change thought patterns that escalate anger or anxiety, and it breaks problems into manageable steps. DBT provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and communicating more effectively in heated moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and day-to-day life. That might mean focusing more on skill practice one month and on processing difficult events the next; the plan adapts to what the person needs.
The site describes how to get started, but confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and remove travel time. People should consider what works best for them - longer weekly sessions, shorter appointments around work, or regular practice check-ins - and discuss that during the first meeting.
