Throughout my career as a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, I have witnessed the transformative power of therapy and the positive impact it can have on individuals and their loved ones. I have seen firsthand the resilience and strength that people possess, and it is truly inspiring. As I continue on my journey in the helping field, I am open to new opportunities and challenges. I am committed to making a positive impact in people's lives every day; and with each new opportunity, my passion for helping others continues to grow. I am excited to see what the future holds in continuing to serve others in need.

Would you like to communicate without conflict, hearing each other and easily resolving differences? Do you repeat the same fights or distance yourselves rather than fully enjoy each other? Do you miss the connection you had at the start of your relationship? Bobby and I are a couple who struggled with these issues ourselves. With over 50 years’ combined experience, we found solutions and created powerful tools and skill-sets for success. We find that deep connection dissolve all differences, and we would love to support your emotional, relational, creative and even spiritual well-being. We both care deeply & are highly creative.

Entering into a therapeutic process reflects the courage and hope to shape a more satisfying life - in your relationships, work, play and spirituality. I believe in the power to change and to heal our lives. In this process, we will work together to help you gain deeper self awareness and acceptance of yourself. Working creatively, gathering insight and finding concrete day to day strategies as well, we will work through whatever is interfering with your personal fulfillment. I work with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship issues and other personal or professional challenges one might bring in.

I work deeply and kindly with all life's issues: from despair to the urge to create, from self - hatred to the capacity for love. I have been in practice for thirty years and alive even longer. I have never stopped working on myself. I'm committed to making a place where the patient feels safe. Here you can bring as much of yourself as possible into a compassionate relationship. This is where healing can happen.

Have you noticed that you haven't been sleeping well? That you worry a lot, are unhappy or having relationship issues? Have you ever felt like your life is out of control? It doesn't have to be that way. I am here to help. Let me tell you a little bit about my background. I am Japanese but have been living in the United States for more than thirty years. I am a trained psychoanalyst and for more than 20 years have been practicing psychotherapy.

My interest in Marriage and Family Therapy stems from a desire to fill a gap that was present in my own community. Having had experiences where an unbiased sounding board could have been pivotal in navigating unstable relationships, I set a path that allowed me to be the change I wanted to see. The general philosophy that anchors my practice is “building healthy relationships one story at a time.” This includes the relationship with oneself. There is no one fits all solution to a problem, or one way of getting to a place of feeling well. This in mind I aim to listen, learn, validate, and advocate for what “works” for my clients.
