Who We Are.

AHS has grown from the vision of a Canadian psychologist who recognized the need for high quality, effective psychological counseling services in Korea. Starting as a one-woman company, AHS has continually grown in size but maintained an unwavering dedication to professionalism, confidentiality and measurable outcomes.

There is no question that Korean culture is vastly different from those cultures which many expats in Korea come from, and it may be difficult to find someone who can really understand your experience.

To that end, our English therapy team is composed of many Western expatriates who were born, raised and trained in the West. They must be credentialed professionals who have achieved advanced degrees specific to Psychotherapy (psychologists, marriage & family therapists, & licensed counselors). Further, AHS professionals must have current licensure in the United States or Canada, and must maintain the professional standards of their governing body.

This standard of our people's qualifications has allowed many of our clients to receive reimbursement or to direct bill their overseas insurance provider or EAP (Employee Assistance Program).

Our clients come from around the globe including America, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, United Kingdom, Ireland, Spain, Africa, South Africa, Holland, and more.

With a wide range of expertise available, we will match you with the professional best suited to your concerns. Please look through the menu for further information and contact us at your convenience to discuss how we can best be of help.

What We Do.

We work in partnership with our clients to support them in meeting their goals, overcoming difficult obstacles, and increasing their positive experiences in Korea.

All of our therapists understand the many benefits and difficulties that come with a “global citizenship”. We care deeply about promoting the best possible experience for members of our community, and in providing a safety net for our clients to use as they navigate their life in Korea.

What We Don’t Do.

• We do not provide medical services in any form.
• We do not provide medication, but we do refer clients to reputable providers in our community that are specialized in psychiatry.
• We do not have emergency response services, or 24 hour support. We do however refer to people in the community who can offer medical and crisis services. For a list of medical services available in Korea, click here.
