Dr. Mike Kim (Itaewon Int. Clinic), Dr. Linton (Severance Hospital), among others, were educated and/or practiced in the West and are very clear with boundaries and confidentiality. Be very careful with some Korean doctors~ especially outside of Seoul/Gyonggi-do that really do not understand confidentiality laws. Best of luck!

This is not a specific response to this thread but an updated list of the English therapy team at Adaptable Human Solutions. We have 2 therapy teams (native English & native Korean, and currently also Spanish & Portuguese) made up of licensed therapists with a variety of backgrounds. AHS abides by the strictest of N. American professional ethics; confidentiality is assured. AHS is not a medical facility but works with local psychiatrists for medication monitoring. All team members are trained and licensed in North America, and most were born and raised there. For more info, please visit us at ahskorea.com

Does anybody know where I can get a light therapy box in Korea? Preferably one with white and not blue lights. I tried surviving last winter here without my lightbox from the states, and it wasn't a happy period of my life. I could get mine shipped from the states, but with the amount of care and packaging it would need, it would not be much more expensive to just buy a new one (assuming they are the same-ish in price range as back home).

Is there any sort of English language, psychiatric/counseling hotline currently available?

A friend of mine is making serious threats of self-harm, I need somewhere to put them in touch with as soon as possible.
