MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING.
Since starting the Mental Health Counseling Program at Hanul in 2018, the program has provided mental health and substance use counseling services to hundreds of Koreans and its neighboring residents in the Chicagoland area. Thanks to professionally trained bilingual and bicultural (Korean and English) counseling, Mindwell Counseling has provided counseling services for all age groups free of charge.
