As a Korean-speaking Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in providing culturally responsive and affirming therapy for Korean and Korean American individuals and families. I understand the complexities of navigating mental health within the context of Korean cultural values, including family expectations, intergenerational dynamics, identity struggles, and the stigma often associated with seeking help.

Meet Frayde Yudkowsky, LSW, LMSW, CTP Founder of THRIVE! Mental Health Therapist • Educator • Advocate • Community Activist • System • Fashionista Hi!! I’m Frayde Yudkowsky — and yes, I wear a lot of hats. Literally and figuratively. I’m a licensed therapist in NY, NJ, and AZ, a Certified Trauma Professional, the proud founder of THRIVE! Mental Health, and a lifelong advocate for healing, honesty, and radical compassion. I’m also a polyfragmented system living with DID, and that lived experience is my badge of honor. It’s the heartbeat behind everything I do. My Work in the World Since childhood, I’ve been drawn to creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, valued, and safe to be who they really are. That calling has taken me around the world — from the U.S. to Australia and back again — and into nearly every corner of the mental health field: Psych hospitals Rehabs, PHPs, IOPs, and outpatient centers Alternative high schools, wilderness programs, sober homes In-home counseling and nonprofit leadership I’ve founded and directed several organizations, helped build others from the ground up, and always stayed rooted in one thing: people first. Ready to help other Systems heal and THRIVE, I founded THRIVE! Mental Health — a private therapy practice based in New Jersey that supports clients in New Jersey, New York, and Arizona. I work with children, teens, adults, and older adults — offering individual therapy, groups, and creative modalities that meet people where they are. My specialty? Working with systems who live with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) and OSDD. Together, we explore who’s who inside, learn how each part is trying to protect, connect, or survive, and gently build internal communication rooted in curiosity and compassion. Groups I Facilitate: • DID/OSDD Support Group • Creative Expression Therapy Group • Chronic Pain Support Group • Chronic Illness/Disability Support Group • Sand Tray Therapy Group • MHP Support Group • [And more coming soon…] Why I Do This Because I know what it’s like to be on both sides of the therapy room. Because systems deserve to be supported, not pathologized. Because healing happens when we’re held — not fixed. Whether you’re here as a client, a colleague, a fellow traveler, or just curious — I’m so glad you found your way to THRIVE! Here, we see you. All of you. 🫶 — Frayde
