Not Trauma-Informed,

Trauma Effective

Hi. I'm JaeJeung.

I also go by "JJ."

I'm a highly sensitive, neurodivergent person with a complex trauma history. Always high-performing — at a cost.

Survival masked as strength.
People-pleasing masked as thoughtfulness.
Codependence masked as caring.
Ambition masked as proof I deserved to exist —

built on a foundation too brittle to hold.
Until it collapsed.

And I finally met myself underneath the ruins.

For the past 20 years, I've helped hundreds of people like me liberate from complex trauma and rebuild themselves.

A life of their choosing.

If any of this sounds like you, you're in the right place.

    Trauma Intensives

    Some things can't be pruned into submission. They have to come out at the root.

    That's what intensives are for — finding exactly where the wound took hold, and releasing it. Completely. In hours, not years.

    Authenticity Coaching

    Once the ground is clear, something has to grow there.

    Coaching is learning how to tend it — how to choose what you plant, how to know what's yours, how to build a life that actually belongs to you.

Reviews

  • "Every session with JJ was impactful, progressing through a mixture of developing therapeutic skills and new insights. We could quickly assess a wide variety of approaches to therapy and identify what worked really well for me. Between each session I had tools to apply that reliably made a big differences. And we routinely addressed what I brought to each session. Gradually, I witnessed my orientation to my "issues" changing, whereby I felt ever more equipped to address whatever should arise. My life started to feel more honest and my heart more open. My time with JJ changed my life."

    Client, resolved complex trauma

  • “I have been to therapy multiple times and have never really clicked with anyone before JaeJeung. She was able to understand the deeper injuries beneath my depression and negativity and helped me to heal those wounds. I feel more capable to face the challenges of life now that I know how to handle my emotions and fears. I can finally feel happiness again that reaches the edges of my soul. I am beyond grateful."

    Client, resolved depression and negative self-perception

  • "From the outset of therapy with JJ, I found it extraordinarily easy to connect with her. She has an authenticity and sincerity I could sense right away, and it was so easy to be honest and vulnerable in our sessions. Eventually, I felt safe enough so that I was not holding anything back, which was, itself, a unique and incredibly powerful experience for me. For example, I was able to offer and witness (and let go of!) even my deepest feelings of shame, which I hadn't previously been able to show myself, let alone someone else."

    Client, resolved childhood tauma

  • "JJ is a transformative therapist and teacher. She practices therapy with such sincerity and authenticity, so that it's easy and therapeutic to trust her. She is so adept at listening, seeing, and understanding. One can feel her openness and lack of judgment, which is also therapeutic and creates an incredibly ripe environment for true witnessing and change. She is incredibly skillful at helping, easily shifting among a large variety of therapeutic approaches to find what fits. She is just an unbelievably gifted therapist in my opinion."

    Client, resolved complex trauma

  • “I feel like an adult for the first time”

    Client, resolved complex childhood trauma

  • “JJ is very professional and makes you feel important and worth her time. Her intelligence and compassion makes her kind, attentive and incredibly resourceful. She will gentrly challenge you to make positive changes in your life, and be with you every step of the healing process.”

    Client, resolved dissociation in relationships

  • “I got something out of every single session. JJ has a very refined eye. I often came in with a tangled cloud of abstractions and she never failed to find the string that connected it all. Because of this, I felt like I often moved rather quickly, in a positive sense. I also felt very well taken care of in every issue that I brought in, from the cultural aspect to the trauma-related fears to the individuating process."

    Client, resolved struggle with individuation and career alignment

  • “JJ has a lot of knowledge and experience with trauma work and art therapy, both of which I benefited from in my sessions. She is understanding but also frank about situations. I also appreciated her sense of humor that helped build rapport and made discussing more difficult experiences easier.”

    Client, resolved self-doubt and anxiety stemming from toxic relationship

Imagine

  • Knowing what you actually want — not what you're supposed to want.

  • Absorbing the good things without worrying about the other shoe.

  • Letting yourself be seen without bracing for the cost.

  • Choosing from desire rather than from fear dressed as responsibility.

That’s what’s waiting.
