Soo Kim is a marriage and family therapy intern at Hudson River Care and Counseling (HRCC). Mr. Kim works virtually and in the Teaneck, New Jersey, office. He is completing his Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy in Alliance University. He provides both in-person and telehealth counseling at HRCC.
Soo is deeply passionate about equipping couples and families with clinical counseling skills. Seeing the vast need for counseling for couples and families, especially after the pandemic, Soo is called to meet people where they are and equip them with the perspective and skills to grow in their lives.
Soo is also certified in Prepare/Enrich, a pre-marriage and marriage enrichment counseling program. As a husband himself, Soo knows the importance of establishing a strong base of communication for any marriage. By conducting premarital counseling, Soo recognizes that couples greatly benefit from discussing topics of family history, sex, finances, relationships, and other critical areas that they need to share so that they can know how the other perceives these matters.
He is also an Ordained Minister of Word and Sacrament in the Reformed Church in America, where he serves as a Married Couple’s Pastor in a local church in New Jersey. He also graduated from Western Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity.
Soo recognizes that there may be a need for more access to clinical counseling for various people, and he hopes to make his passion and experience available to people from both religious and non-religious backgrounds.

Driola Dega, LMFT is an attachment-based, culturally sensitive therapist who works with individuals (adults), couples, and families. She utilizes an existential, collaborative and highly engaging approach as she supports her clients in identifying and drawing upon their strengths to move toward self-realization. A firm believer in the benefits of self-realization and insight, Driola aims to assist clients in identifying their own answers. Her work relies upon a variety of therapeutic techniques in which she is highly-trained and well-versed, including Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT), CBT-E (for Eating Disorders), Emotionally Focused (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Trauma-Informed.
Driola believes that all clients have the capacity to reach their potential, but must first identify the factors that keep them “stuck.” Such obstacles might include (but are not limited to) self-defeating beliefs, genetic pre-dispositions to anxiety or depression, sociocultural systemic oppression, or problematic family or couple dynamics. In Driola’s challenging yet compassionate approach, she helps clients recognize how such factors create limiting self-views and preclude personal growth and happiness.
Driola specializes in the treatment of family conflict, relationship issues, life transitions, and mood disorders. Other common areas of treatment include chronic illness, codependency, eating disorders, grief, narcissistic personality (NPD), racial identity, sexual abuse, trauma and PTSD. In addition to English, she speaks Albanian, Italian and Spanish.
