Dr. Moon Psychology Center

I am Dr Jeongmi Moon, a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience guiding adults with anxiety, ADHD management, relationship and family issues, life transitions, and identity concerns. I blend evidence-based therapy with meditation, Eastern philosophy, and mindfulness psychology to support deep, meaningful change. I offer psychotherapy in both English and Korean, and offer a unique understanding of issues concerning cross-cultural transitions, feminism, and religious trauma. 

​

My path to becoming a mental health provider began with a career in filmmaking and creative writing, where I explored human emotion through storytelling. I was drawn to the inner struggles people carry and the desire to be seen and understood. This led me to pursue a PhD in Psychology at UCLA and training in expressive arts therapy. I have experience across diverse settings, including community mental health centers, correctional facilities, hospitals, refugee camps, and now through my own private practice, serving clients in a long term capacity for as long as they would like guidance.

​

My work is grounded in compassion for those who suffer silently and rooted in a sense that we can do hard things. I use an integrative approach, combining evidence-based therapies with mindfulness and narrative exploration, to help clients build insight, resilience, and the ability to care for themselves. I incorporate Jungian and psychoanalytic insights and tools for creative expression for those seeking a deeper, more holistic approach–I offer both film and art therapy sessions as well, for clients who wish to explore their inner minds through storytelling.

​

Whether you are processing grief, seeking clarity, or longing for a more meaningful connection between you and the world, I am here to walk alongside you. I am a member of the American Psychological Associate, San Diego Psychological Association, and San Diego Psychoanalytic center.
