Debi (she/her) is an intern therapist who works with couples and individuals who feel stuck in the same painful cycles—constantly fighting about the same things, feeling disconnected even when they're together, or walking on eggshells to avoid conflict. Many of the people she works with feel exhausted from trying so hard, lonely even in their closest relationships, and unsure how to break the patterns that keep pulling them apart.

Debi's approach is rooted in the belief that we all carry within us the wisdom and resilience needed to heal, grow, and thrive. She helps clients bring unconscious patterns to light, understand the emotional cycles underneath their struggles, and reconnect with their truest selves. Her work is relational, collaborative, and emotionally attuned—grounded in an attachment-based, strengths-focused approach that doesn't ask what's "wrong" with you, but instead explores how your nervous system and relationships have learned to protect you. Utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), she helps clients recognize the cycles that interfere in their lives and discover new ways to create deeper connection and trust.

She has experience supporting clients with relationship conflict, anxiety, relational trauma, life transitions, and navigating the complexities of identity and belonging. She sees relationships—especially romantic partnerships—as powerful mirrors and teachers, offering opportunities for deep self-understanding and transformation.

Debi is especially passionate about working with BIPOC communities, LGBTQ+ folks, and adult children of immigrants. As the child of Korean immigrants herself, she has lived experience navigating identity, racial injustice, and belonging. She is deeply committed to cultural humility and social justice in her practice, and brings a grounded, compassionate presence—offering empathic connection, non-judgment, and genuine care to help clients feel truly seen and understood.

Debi is currently earning her MA from Northwestern University and is trained in EFT, a research-supported, attachment-based approach to changing the emotional patterns that shape how we connect, protect ourselves, and love. Before becoming a therapist, Debi spent 15 years as a Senior Product Manager in the tech industry and is also certified as a coach—experiences that deepened her curiosity about growth, change, and what truly helps people move forward.

Outside of the therapy room, Debi enjoys laughing with friends, decompressing with yoga, and being a couch potato with her partner and cat.
