About Soo
Hello, welcome to Cognizant Psychotherapy!
In today’s fast-paced world, many of us experience feelings of anxiety and overwhelm.
We often strive to maintain a perfect facade while struggling internally. If you are
struggling with ADHD, OCD, grief, or anxiety, you are in the right place. I specialize in
helping clients overcome these challenges and have successfully assisted many
individuals in improving their situations. My focus includes building confidence and
self-worth, healing our inner child, and fostering empowerment within a safe, empathetic,
and non-judgmental environment to support you on your therapeutic journey.
While this process, I am here to help you better understand the root causes of the negative patterns that may be holding you back. Together, we will discover new ways to respond to challenging thoughts, emotions, and situations. Our work together will guide you in navigating these challenges and achieving your vision of a thriving and fulfilling life.
My first career was in the fashion industry, where I gained valuable insights into the challenges people face in balancing work and life. The corporate experiences helped me understand the struggle of maintaining a perfect facade while dealing with internal conflicts, as well as the fear and complexity of transitioning into a new chapter of life.
