Hye Kam, M. Div., MFT & Psychotherapist
With over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families (9 years in the community NPO and 13 years in private practice), I am privileged to be invited to join you in your work of being the most you can be.
I have a passion for understanding who people are, and exploring how to support people to be the most of their authentic self, experiencing and engaged with life. Sometimes we hold past patterns which limit our ability to feel alive in life and in relationships.
Supporting this deep work requires sharp and specialized training, which is why I continue to put a strong emphasis on my own learning. The latest research and professional training seminars enable me to offer you a well-informed and effective therapy. My work is based on attachment theory and includes models such as a psycho-biological approach of Somatic Experiencing, EFCT (Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy), IFS (Internal Family Systems), TIST (Trauma Informed Stabilization Technique), DBT and others.
I am licensed as a Marital and Family Therapist with the OTSTCFQ and as a Psychotherapist with the OPQ. I am also an IFS Practitioner, and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner with the Somatic Institute Trauma Institute, as well as other certificates in Developmental Trauma and Somatic Regulation.
I work from an integrative approach, ensuring the therapeutic style we utilize is appropriate and the best fit for you. I believe every individual, couple and family is unique and so I believe in getting to know who you are. My goal is for our work together to go deeper than simply learning helpful tools and skills. My goal is for you and your partner or your family to grow deeper in understanding yourself and one another. Through this journey of discoveries, you will be empowered to free yourself from the negative cycles of conflict and despair; you will find a new and better way to experience yourself and your relationships.
My mission is to provide the help my clients need. Hence, my priority is to understand my clients. Our time together is a safe place for communication, healing, acceptance and building stronger connections. No matter what challenge you face, I look forward to being a partner with you.
