I am a bilingual (Korean and English) licensed psychologist in Maryland and Washington, and I've been helping people over the past 8 years. I've been working in various settings, including hospitals, community centers, and private practice, helping a wide range of people struggling with intimacy issues, trust issue, work-related stress, feeling worried, feeling depressed, familial conflict, feeling unmotivated, and other psychological problems.
In therapy sessions, I want you to feel comfortable and safe. You can share your thoughts and feelings with me, and you don't have to worry about being judged. It takes a lot of courage to want things to be better and take the first steps to make a change. I'm here to help you give you the strength to do that.
I'm really excited about the change to work with you. I look forward to helping you on your journey to feeling better and happier.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Minsu Kim. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Big YES! My life got better and my anxiety lighter as I continued my therapy with Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim helped me when I needed a professional I could trust as a safe place to share some profound past experiences. I felt valued, understood, and hopeful after each session. I feel better about myself. I feel better about life. Thank you, Dr. Kim and Betterhelp.
