About Heyjin
Heyjin Oh is an AASW-accredited social worker with four years' experience in mental health care. She supports people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family issues, depression and big life changes. Heyjin aims to make sessions feel open and non-judgemental so people can speak honestly about difficult feelings.
She uses Systemic Therapy to look at patterns between people and how those patterns affect mood and behaviour. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice thoughts, choose values-based actions, and build practical skills.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills and Motivational Interviewing are used when clients need tools for emotion regulation and to strengthen motivation for change. Heyjin has worked across community and mental health settings, and has supported clients with attachment issues, family of origin problems, communication difficulties and caregiving stress.
She also has experience with concerns such as abandonment, impulsivity, dissociation and challenges linked to autism and personality patterns. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Heyjin helps people set clear goals and practises techniques in session that can be used between meetings.
She offers support in English and Korean and aims to make therapy feel straightforward and useful. People who choose Heyjin can expect practical strategies alongside conversations about relationships and meaning. Her approach blends talking, skill-building and gentle challenge to help clients move through difficult moments and navigate change.

Online support
How approaches like Systemic and ACT work online
Systemic Therapy looks at relationships and patterns between people. Online sessions can explore how family and interaction patterns shape emotions and behaviour, and then practise different ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values; it is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes and can be practised through guided exercises in video or chat. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds influence current relationships and offers ways to build more supported emotional connections during counselling.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods across Systemic, ACT or attachment work as needed. Clients and therapist review progress together and adjust the plan if something is not helping.
Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, homework support or when someone needs a shorter contact between sessions. Together these options let people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while working with an appropriately qualified therapist.
