Basically, just someone to talk to. I'm sure all of us go through hard times here at some point. It may be job related. Friends or relationships here. Or things with you family back home. Some new comers need help adjusting. Some old timers need to connect with someone with a new perspective.

I'm just in a slump about things now. Having issues with friends, relationships, family, etc. Just wondering if anyone knew of any counselors or shrinks here I could talk to? Sometimes just being able to say stuff out loud to a person that isn't your friend or will judge you for it can help a lot. I just need someone with a fresh set of ears and maybe knows how to help people through rough patches.

Thankx in advance.

Ai, I will help you for 20,000 won an hour Twisted Evil

I did recall a therapist for 'foreigners' outside of a train station somewhere. I believed it was near "Guri" station... Guri being east of Seoul. I may be mistaken though. This therapist may be near Hoeryong north of Seoul. I can't recall exactly.

I will be heading by Guri tomorrow. I will keep my eyes open this time.

Give Harpeau a call. I think he also does counseling via Skype. We emailed back and forth a few times and I was really impressed by his concern and follow up efforts. If I were in Korea and needed someone to talk to, I would definitely give him a call.

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

Stay up all night. Not drinking or anything, just stay up. Seriously, it helps to somehow reset your mental state. I learned this from a bi-polar friend.
