About Mi
Mi Jung You is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 10 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, self-esteem, and family conflict. Mi Jung also addresses life stressors, transitions, and issues tied to family of origin.
She uses a mix of practical methods in sessions. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions. Client-centered approaches guide conversations so the person’s goals set the pace.
Sessions often involve clear, concrete steps. Mi Jung helps people name patterns that repeat from childhood and then tries different ways to respond. She encourages short experiments between sessions to see what changes feel useful in daily life.
Her background includes work with people dealing with trauma, grief, addictions, chronic health concerns, and parenting stress. The approach is direct and steady, focused on learning skills and noticing how old family roles still influence behavior today.
Mi Jung offers therapy in English and Korean and accepts international clients. She practices from New York and brings a decade of clinical experience to conversations about relationships, attachment issues, and coping with major life changes.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and values, then taking small actions that match what matters. It can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns that come from family expectations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different responses. That approach is useful for stress, mood problems, and changing repetitive reactions learned in childhood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort. Sessions can shift over time if something else seems more helpful, and decisions about techniques are made together.
Confirm current session formats before booking since the original biography does not list specific online arrangements. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, remove travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It also makes it possible to continue regular meetings while handling caregiving, health limitations, or travel. Licensed professionals, including this LMHC, will discuss how to structure session length and timing to suit daily life.
