Counseling and Wellness aims to provide comprehensive support services that promote the personal, social, and academic success of Mason Korea students.
Hello, everyone.
My name is Helena, and I am a counselor at George Mason University Korea. Before joining this institution, I'd worked as a licensed clinical psychologist for over 10 years. Now, I am here to provide counseling services for students.
Whether you are facing personal challenges or would like to talk about the issues such as stress, emotional concerns, relationship, and self-understanding, I am here to support you. If you simply need someone to talk to because you have a bad day, that is fine as well.
I understand that life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it may be difficult to find answers. However, I firmly believe that the answers you seek are already within you, waiting to be discovered. Through our sessions, I am going to be with you pleasantly on your journey to find your own way. Please remember that you are always welcome just the way you are, so feel free to reach out to me.
I am looking forward to meeting all of you.
Sincerly,
Helena Choi
Message from Yiseo
Dear Patriots,
Hello, this is Yiseo and I am your mental health counselor. Before joining as a mental health counselor, I worked at Mason Korea for over 6 years and was affiliated under University Life team for the past three years, where I had the opportunity to learn about students' challenges and concerns, and how much they are searching for support as they process these difficulties.
I am here for you to talk about any kinds of issues you may want to share. Whether it is related to your personal life, relationships, anxiety, depression, or others, you are more than welcome to visit me to discuss about it.
Always remember that you are not alone, and that we are here for you. When you need help or someone to listen to you - I can be one of the person you may want to come and talk to, and I would always love to hear your story.
I look forward to seeing you. You can see my by making an appointment (please see below). If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at ykim244@gmu.edu or call at 032-626-6142.
