OUR TEAM
Meet Sookyung Ahn!
A Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with G&G.
I wholeheartedly believe that each person has the inner resilience and wisdom to heal, grow, and navigate life’s challenges. Often, the struggles we face are tied to deeper developmental processes that involve emotional, psychological, physical, and even spiritual aspects. By blending different therapeutic approaches and expanding our understanding of human experience, we can make meaningful progress in resolving these issues.
As both a clinical counsellor and an art therapist, I know how important it is to create a space where people can safely express themselves through words and non-verbal communication. The importance of connecting with all walks of life and being open to diversity allows me to hold space for the range of challenges that come into my virtual office.
I am dedicated to having a solid understanding of both counselling and theory while creating personalized and evidence based support for my clients. My hunger for knowledge has led me to obtain a Master’s in Counselling Psychology, an MBA in International Business, and I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. Through my studies to become a clinical psychologist I have gained a deeper clinical understanding of mental health diagnoses, treatment planning, and clinical assessments.
I specialize in areas including substance and behavioural addiction, anger management, couples counselling, career and life transitions, trauma (including first responder trauma), self-esteem, and gender issues. I work with various therapeutic approaches, including the Gottman Method for couples, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Art Therapy.
Overall, I believe we all have the power to heal deep rooted pain and patterns with the right support and guidance. If this resonates with you, please go ahead and book a complimentary consultation. I would love to connect and discuss how I can support you!
