Welcome. You’re in the right place.

Connect with me

Hi, I’m Kumbe Anabelle Hwang ,

You deserve more than coping.
You deserve clarity, connection, and confidence.

I’m Kumbe Anabelle Hwang, a licensed therapist at Blooming Days Therapy. My work centers on helping adults feel genuinely understood, not rushed, judged, or minimized. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, mood disorders (including bipolar), self-esteem concerns, and identity-related stress. Together, we explore your internal world and take meaningful steps toward lasting emotional well-being.

I create a therapy space that is:

  • Safe and non-judgmental

  • Culturally responsive and inclusive

  • Collaborative and personalized

Here, you’re not a diagnosis. You’re a whole person with a history, a culture, and a story worth hearing.

Who I Help

People arrive here for different reasons and we meet each person where they are.

You might be:

  • Constantly battling stress, overthinking, or worry

  • Feeling stuck in patterns of relationships or self-doubt

  • Navigating life transitions that feel overwhelming

  • Carrying the emotional weight of childhood, cultural, or generational trauma

  • Managing high expectations, perfectionism, or identity stress

  • Living with mood swings, anxiety, or bipolar mood patterns

  • Balancing family, culture, and personal identity in ways that feel isolating

No matter your experience, what brought you here is valid and what comes next matters

A Thoughtful Approach to Private Pay Therapy


Blooming Days Therapy was intentionally designed as a private pay practice to protect the quality and integrity of care. This model allows therapy to remain flexible, relational, and responsive to each client’s lived experience rather than shaped by external systems.

Working privately creates space for deeper conversations, nuanced emotional work, and a pace that honors both safety and growth. It also allows for increased confidentiality and a more collaborative approach to treatment planning.

For clients seeking therapy that feels grounded, personalized, and respectful of their complexity, private pay therapy offers a supportive path forward.

Our Approach : Evidence-Based, Human-Centered

Therapy isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions. It’s about meaningful change that feels real and sustainable. Here’s how we support you:

Depth Without Pressure

We explore not just what’s happening now, but how your past has shaped your emotional world — gently and at your pace.

Tools That Work in Real Life

From grounding exercises to coping strategies, the skills you develop in therapy are meant to help you navigate everyday challenges, not just check a box.

Cultural and Identity Awareness

We value your background, heritage, and lived experience. Understanding your cultural context isn’t an add-on, it’s essential to healing. 

Flexible, Accessible Online Therapy

No need to stress about traffic, parking, or taking time off work. Online therapy makes it easier for busy adults in Northern Virginia, including Fairfax, Centreville, Tysons, Alexandria, or Arlington, to access care reliably and privately from home or wherever you feel comfortable.

Why Blooming Days Therapy Is Different

We intentionally keep our practice small so you get attentive, personalized care, not a rushed or one-size-fits-all approach. You’re treated with respect, presence, and compassion from the first interaction to your ongoing growth.

Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Personalized sessions shaped around your goals

  • Supportive care that respects your pace

  • A therapeutic relationship built on trust and warmth

  • Cultural sensitivity and inclusive understanding

Therapy here isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about understandingunpacking, and growing in ways
that feel authentic to your life.
