"Dr Wanyoung has been an amazing spiritual support for me:
She helped me during a dark night of the soul which lasted only under a year under her guidance. Wanyoung has been my spiritual director for about 1.5+ years. During these sessions we are allowed to discuss any spiritual issues or interpersonal dynamics through the lens of Apostolic theology intermixed with the apostolic teachings of the Church.
She is very adept at providing people with a roadmap that always points to the Christ, and does not judge but redirects pointing towards the Christ to follow. I have grown during my time both in regard to in my personal relationship with the Christ as well as His Church through my spiritual direction of Dr Wanyoung Kim-Murphy. When I do falter in my faith or miss the mark, I am now able to pick myself up dust myself off and draw myself closer to the Christ with my growth in faith, thanks to my sessions with Dr Wanyoung. I am very happy to recommend her services in spiritual direction."

"Wanyoung Kim’s approach is not simply attentive to common syntactical and citation guidelines that preoccupy those engaged in contemporary regimented publishing practices: she also nurtures what is most singular and stylistically integrative within the text. She therefore shows us what will be of the future of editorial and design processes associated with book publishing."

She not only corrected grammatical errors and improved sentence structure but also provided helpful suggestions to enhance the overall coherence and clarity of my work.
