About Yoonkyung

Yoonkyung Chung is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with eight years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life-challenging mental health concerns. She works with clients facing depression, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, suicidal thoughts, trauma related to sexual or physical abuse, social anxiety, substance use concerns, parenting and relationship challenges, and other related issues. Her clinical experience includes work with diverse populations and complex family dynamics.

As a first-generation immigrant from South Korea who has also worked for several years with Hispanic communities, she brings cultural awareness to her therapeutic work. She holds two master degrees and draws on that training and clinical experience to understand family systems and interpersonal conflicts from psychologically informed perspectives. Her primary counseling approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, including techniques from Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, and she integrates additional methods as needed to meet individual client needs.

Yoonkyung approaches each client with seriousness and a focus on measurable, positive progress toward agreed counseling goals. She practices in English and Korean and aims to collaborate with clients as a team to strengthen coping, relationships, and overall functioning. LPC indicates a state credential for professional counselors.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to improve mood and daily functioning. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with relationships and work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and supporting the client’s own capacity for growth; it can be especially helpful for improving self-esteem, processing grief, and exploring personal values. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused method that helps people resolve ambivalence about change and build motivation - it is often used for substance use concerns and other behavior changes.

Choosing the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Yoonkyung works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting the approach as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor care to each person’s situation.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent ongoing support, make scheduling more convenient, and help clients access therapy from locations across Texas without requiring in-person visits.
