Hi. My name is Kameron Apostol-Chinn, LCSW. I am a firm believer that everyone on earth needs to put work into themselves, because we've all had our own life experiences and hang-ups. We ALL have something that we need to work on, and it's OK. I believe that healing and growth can happen for everyone. I also believe that, "the more we share, the more we heal". Addressing ourselves and our past is not easy, but it is always worth it in the long run. I am an Air Force Veteran with one tour to Afghanistan. I spent 11 years working in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), with six of those years providing counseling. During my time with the VA I had worked with Active Duty Military, National Guard, Reserve, and Veterans dealing with Combat PTSD, anger, anxiety, depression, nightmares, and readjustment issues. Also worked with Male and Female Veterans who have experienced Sexual Trauma. I've also gotten the chance to work with spouses of Military members and Veterans. In my time counseling and in social work, I've been able to work with individuals dealing with a number of other issues and experiences, as well. I've been able to help people address their childhood trauma, including verbal, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. I've had the opportunity to work with individuals of all ages, sexes, nationalities, cultural and geographical backgrounds, sexual orientations, etc. I'm looking forward to working, together, with you.

My goal is to provide a safe environment that encourages people to open up and share honestly in order to start working on meaningful change. I focus on the person’s strengths and successful experiences in order to increase confidence in overcoming obstacles. I assist people with emotional healing and relationship repair. I have worked as a Christian missionary, and I integrate the Christian faith into counseling sessions. I speak both English and Korean fluently. I use an eclectic approach to therapy some of the therapies used are cognitive, cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, play, and existential. I enjoy working with people of all ages.

These experiences can leave us feeling confused or ashamed, ultimately impacting our ability to tap into our full and authentic selves.
