About Yoonhee

Yoonhee Kang is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Oklahoma with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addiction, sleeping difficulties, relationship conflicts, grief, and mood challenges. She approaches clients with respect for their own knowledge and strengths. Taking a first step toward change often feels hard, and she aims to make that step more manageable.

In sessions she centers the person's experience and listens for what matters most to them. She uses a mix of approaches drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, and EMDR when appropriate. That variety lets her tailor conversations and exercises to the issue at hand, whether it's anxiety, trauma, or patterns that affect relationships.

Her background includes work with complex mental health concerns and relationship struggles, and she has served as an LMFT supervisor. Clients can expect practical tools alongside space to process difficult emotions. She tends to use clear, direct language and short, real-world exercises people can try between sessions.

She offers therapy in English and Korean and is willing to work with international clients. Before starting, people are encouraged to check current session options and scheduling details so they can choose a plan that fits their life.

To begin, she guides people through a brief intake and collaborative goal-setting process. The emphasis is on gradual progress and on building skills that help with sleep, stress, relationships, and day-to-day functioning.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current needs and reactions. It helps people recognize patterns in close relationships and build safer, more reliable ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person as the expert on their life and uses empathetic listening and reflection to help them find their own solutions and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses short exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or insomnia.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and past experiences, and then suggest options to try. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the client's needs and pace.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people access bilingual support in English and Korean or continue work while living in another country. Practical benefits include easier scheduling, quicker follow-up between sessions, and the ability to use real-life examples from daily routines during conversations.
