About Mi
Mi Jung You is a New York licensed mental health counselor with ten years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and relationship and family concerns. She speaks Korean and offers sessions in multiple formats to fit busy lives.
Her work is straightforward and practical. She listens first and helps people name what matters most. Then she and the client set clear goals and try small, manageable steps.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what the client wants to change now and how to get there. Mi Jung integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy with cognitive and acceptance-based tools. That combination lets her address feelings in relationships, while also teaching skills to manage mood and anxious thoughts.
She uses client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in each person’s values and strengths. People come for help with grief, addiction, sleep problems, parenting strain, chronic illness, and issues around self-esteem and body image. She also supports people dealing with anger, attachment wounds, dissociation, and the fallout from domestic violence or divorce.
Her sessions can include short-term coaching or longer therapeutic work. Mi Jung aims to make the process clear and doable, offering video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She works collaboratively to tailor each step to the client’s life and goals.

Online support
How her approaches shape online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions in relationships and personal patterns, helping people understand how feelings drive reactions and connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what they value and take small committed actions toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early attachment patterns and how they influence trust, closeness, and emotional responses in adult relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which combination of methods fits each person's needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress is made or new priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is not desired. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and skill practice easier between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other daily demands while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
