Welcome
Nice to meet you. This is Yunjeong Lee’s website. Here, you will be able to review a brief portfolio and CV about me.
I’m a researcher transitioning from cognitive psychology to counseling and clinical psychology, driven by a strong desire to connect scientific insight with human care. With a background in Life Science and Psychology, I’ve explored how emotion and context influence language processing, including two years of research at GIST’s Language, Cognition, & Brain Lab and a cross-cultural study on urban green spaces during my Korea-Germany Junior Research Fellowship at KIT.
Through these diverse experiences, I realized that what sustains my passion for research is seeing its real-world relevance - especially in helping individuals navigate emotional and psychological challenges. My goal is to integrate rigorous empirical methods with compassionate practice, with a particular focus on research related to LGBTQ+ identity and attachment patterns. I believe that meaningful change arises when evidence-based knowledge is applied in ways that honor the complexity of human experience.
If you’d like to connect or learn more about my work, feel free to reach out!
