Our Four Branches of Helping Hands

How will TREE relieve your suffering and change your future?

TREE Treatment Areas

Relentless Emotional Suffering

Feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and discouragement

Not able to speak vs. Not want to speak
Language acquisition delay and learning delay are not the same issue

Regretful impulsive speech & behaviors

Traumatic memories sit in the brain like shadow

Language delay? Autism? Or both?
Parents with autistic children may often feel like walking in a fog.

Broken pieces of thoughts in the air, floating in your disorganized room

“For the past decades, I have encountered people who experienced suffering.

Children and teenagers, women, and men, the rich and the poor, the young and the aged, blue-collared and white-collared, Christians, Buddhists and Muslims….

They taught me one very precious lesson; that is, as human beings, everyone suffers from their own limitations and that I am not an exception.

This lesson has become the foundation of the Tree Group’s psychological services,

and we believe that it is our calling to help people relieved from their pain and suffering with advanced psychological knowledge and treatment.”

Yong Cho, Ph.D.ㅣChief Psychologist, the Tree Group

Distraction & Mindfulness 2

A child’s interesting behavior was observed. While sitting on the sofa, their hands continuously touched their face and head, twisting and turning, while their body moved up and down, legs shaking or constantly in motion.

Distraction & Mindfulness 1

When we close our eyes for a moment, images and thoughts pass through our minds like scenes from a movie, filling our minds with numerous thoughts, emotions, and images.

In 1896, Dr. Witmer from the University of Pennsylvania became the pioneer to apply psychological knowledge to clinical and educational settings.

He did not turn his blind eye to children’s delayed academic progress and language development and began providing treatment based on psychological research and knowledge.

This is the root of our Psycho-educational Program.

“For the past 9 months, the DBT program helped me face things I simply endured, the part of me I avoided and did not look into during the process, the many wrong perspectives and my vulnerabilities.”

Seungha Lee, MSc Psychotherapist

“The moment I see the children that I am serving grow and overcome their difficulties; that is the moment that I feel grateful and happy.”

DBT found me a new life.

“I have the motivation and courage to attempt new challenges.”
