Story of Dr. Cho

Dr. Cho, his pursuit of science& mindful serving

Center for International Psychological ServicesㅣPhilosophy

“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.”

A seed,
waiting for the spring
embracing Colors of Lights

flowers aglow,
into a tree
it blossomed

season of LIFE
season of Truth
season of Liberation

We hear the sound of children
with unsung exuberance
and hidden happiness

DBT Center of KoreaㅣPhilosophy

We all are suffering from our innate limitation as human beings.

The only people who are able to confront this inescapable fact and lessen our pain and suffering is ourselves.

Only we could balance our minds.

DBT is the truthful psychotherapy that helps us balance our minds even within the storm of pain and suffering.

“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.”

Yong Cho, Ph.D.ㅣThe Tree Group / DBT Center of Korea Chief Psychologist

Dr. Cho, the path he walk, is the path for pain and suffering; the DBT and Marsha Linehan’s philosophy, he believed, are the non-detachable companion of his walk to save people from their suffering.

Dr. Cho has always been open-minded. DBT Center of Korea welcome anyone who approaches us with mindful and scientific state of mind.

Yong Cho, Ph.D.ㅣCEO, Chief Psychologist, the Tree Group

The path of Dr. Cho and his treatment team is the walk of people who are suffering.

The four branches of the Tree Group; Center for International Psychological Services, DBT Center of Korea, School of LifeㅣActive Learning Center, the Tree Group Press are the four hands to help all of us who walk this unavoidable path.
