About Jookyoung

Jookyoung Jackie Faana is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida and Nevada with 16 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, family concerns, and self-esteem struggles.

Faana focuses on practical steps that can change day-to-day life. Sessions often center on identifying manageable goals, practicing skills for mood and anxiety, and working through relationship and communication issues. She pays attention to the effects of chronic illness, caregiving responsibilities, and attachment-related patterns.

Her approach uses several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice thinking patterns and try new behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clarifying personal values and taking value-driven action. Attachment-based work looks at how early connections influence current relationships.

People who are overwhelmed by role changes or caregiving demands can expect focused, practical sessions. Faana also addresses guilt, shame, isolation, and control issues with concrete strategies to reduce emotional overwhelm. She incorporates techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when emotion regulation or interpersonal effectiveness skills are needed.

Sessions are conducted in English and Korean, and she accepts international clients. Her background across diverse concerns helps when problems overlap, such as chronic pain with mood changes, or caregiving stress affecting relationships. To start, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values while allowing difficult feelings to exist. It can help when anxiety or life changes make decision-making and motivation hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and practical problems like sleep, avoidance, and low activity. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and day-to-day routine. That may mean shifting mixes of ACT, CBT, attachment-focused work, or DBT skills over time. Confirm session formats before you book since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering options that match how people work and rest. These practical benefits help people maintain consistent work on goals alongside family, health, and job commitments.
