Kyong Yi, LCSW
As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, Kyong’s approach to facilitation is rooted in safety, trust, and intention. She specializes in working with complex trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, and depression. She has served as a study therapist on several clinical trials involving psychedelic-assisted therapy, which has strengthened her belief in the healing potential of psychedelic medicine.
Kyong Yi is a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience walking alongside individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and the profound pain of disconnection.
Works best with
- Seeking Connection
- Someone who feels disconnected from themselves and their community and is longing for greater intimacy and belonging.
- Complex Trauma and Relationships
- Clients navigating complex trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, social anxiety, or depression who want depth-oriented support.
- BIPOC Clients
- As an Asian-American facilitator, Kyong is especially excited to work with BIPOC clients seeking culturally attuned care.
How Kyong works
Clinical and evidence-based
Grounded in licensed clinical practice and the psychotherapy research the trials were built on.

Depression
Depression, including the treatment-resistant kind that has not moved with medication alone.

Kyong was great! She is experienced, she was gentle, kind, patient, and let my experience be what it was. She also did a fantastic job recentering me when it was difficult or when I got caught or stuck in a repetitive thought loop. The one-on-one with Kyong was pretty great. It's an experience that will facilitate safe levels of self-exploration that you didn’t even know were possible.
E.R.Private session · May 2026
Kyong was an incredible communicator and highly empathetic. She was the perfect balance of professionalism and kindness. [Our session] was among the most meaningful experiences of my life.
T.P.Private session · April 2026
Kyong was incredibly kind during my session; she was the grounding voice I needed while I felt a wide range of emotions. For me, she was exactly what I needed. I can not put into words how meaningful this experience was for me.
J.B.Private session · March 2026
Kyong is wise, kind, trusting, and has expert credentials. Further, I felt she cared deeply about me from the moment we met until the closure of our last integration session. And she did everything she could to ensure the journey served me and my intentions well. She is deeply purposeful in this work, and it shines through.
