Biography
Irang Kim, LCSWA, LCASA, earned her Bachelor of Social Science in Social Welfare (BSW) from Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, and her Master of Social Work (MSW) from North Carolina State University. As a first-generation immigrant from South Korea, Irang Kim has been through the international students’ and immigrant women's experiences from diverse parts of the United States. Irang has a passion for serving racially and ethnically diverse populations with immigration trauma, adjustment issues, generational conflicts, addictive behavioral concerns, anxiety & depression issues, and loneliness. She believes the therapeutic process starts and finishes with the client’s self-determination with a support of a therapist who honors each individual’s diverse background.
My Approach
Everyone needs some moments to be heard without judgement. Nothing is wrong and everything teaches us something. I am here to witness the process and support self-determination within a safe space where the client and I build together. I take insight oriented indirective approach to help clients to find connections to themselves.
