About Me

My name is Heejin Ryoo, and I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I’m also licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona and South Carolina, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio. I speak Korean fluently and bring a culturally sensitive approach to the work I do.

I’ve supported adult clients in navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, complex PTSD, and life transitions. I especially enjoy working with young adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious about the changes happening in their lives. My goal is to offer compassionate, evidence-based care that’s tailored to each person’s unique story and needs.

In addition to individual therapy, I also provide immigration psychological evaluations and forensic mental health evaluations to support clients involved in legal or immigration-related matters. Whether you're facing emotional struggles or needing professional documentation for a legal case, I'm here to help with empathy, experience, and dedication.

Life’s challenges are a shared journey, and I am here to offer you evidence-based support. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, C-PTSD, or navigating significant life changes such as becoming a mom, immigrating to a new country, starting a new job, or transitioning through relationships. I offer practical tools tailored to your unique situation.

Building upon mindfulness and positive psychology fundamentals, I guide my clients on a path forward through empathy, honesty, and compassion. During a session with me, you can expect a safe and non-judgmental space where you can be yourself, speak openly, and share your thoughts freely. My communication philosophy is flexible and informal but also practical and realistic.

I know from experience how effective therapy can be, especially once clients learn how to incorporate skills such as self-awareness, the ability to consider different perspectives, and the art of intentional pause. Together, we'll uncover pathways to resilience, self-growth, and authentic living. My goal is to be your partner in rewriting your story and guiding you toward a more empowered and fulfilling life.

Let's start this transformative journey together.
