Utilizing IFS therapy, somatic work, and Jungian psychology, I help clients achieve emotional stability and resilience.
My treatment style assists clients in identifying patterns in their emotions, thoughts, and beliefs to gain insight into their current selves. Insight building through introspection. Our work together explores how reactions to present-day circumstances may be influenced by past events. I focus on inner child work and reconstructing negative self-talk, while considering the nuances and complexities of the human experience that shape lives and personal narratives.

I graduated from SUNY University at Buffalo School of Social Work and since then, I have worked with clients with various mental health afflictions in long-term and short-term therapy. I have experience working with clients in group & individual settings. Besides common approaches such as Cognitive & Dialectical Behavioral Therapies, I use Existential & Jungian perspectives to serve my clients. In trauma work, I use the Moral Injury Model, Schema Therapy approach as well as Post-Traumatic Growth Model. I see humor, laughter, poetry…and silence as quite effective therapeutic modalities, too!

Jungian analysis involves dreamwork, reference to mythological symbols and imagery, focus on the deep unconscious and individuation.
Many people who initially come to see me do so because they suffer from immediate practical life-problems like depression, anxiety, psychosomatic symptoms, relationship problems, a philosophical or spiritual crisis; in other words specific problems, conflicts and issues that have made it difficult to live their lives with conscious awareness and integrity.

Please note that my practice is for adults in New York State only. I typically see people above 30 years-old. I'm a Japanese-born Jungian Analyst. While I mainly do Jungian analysis through dream interpretation and active imagination, I also use other modalities such as Existential psychotherapy and art therapy. My focus is not so much on diagnosis per se, but more on the in-depth meanings and symbols that your psyche is trying to convey through your dreams and expressive art/images. My view is that various life challenges or sufferings often appear as stepping stones for further inner development and self-actualization.

I am a certified Jungian Analyst in mid-town Manhattan doing psychodynamic psychotherapy and Jungian analysis. I work at a deep level with individuals who want to break out of unhealthy and unhelpful patterns affecting their lives, relationships, and work in order to awaken unrealized vitality, potential, and creativity. What distinguishes Jungian Analysis from other psychoanalytic approaches to therapy is the attention given to the unconscious as a source of wisdom, vitality and creativity, which can awaken a deeper and more powerful sense of self.

You may want help with your closest relationships, or with your creative work, or with your job, or because you seek a sense of meaning, or of community. Perhaps you want to change your own behavior, but have not been able to make that change happen. You may be the adult child of a narcissistic mother or father who sees that you are still affected by your parent's problems. You may have heard or read something about Jungian therapy that appealed to you. Perhaps you have tried CBT and now want to work more in depth. You probably want relief from some form of pain or isolation.

I work with individuals across the lifespan, drawing from an intuitive blend of therapeutic approaches, including attachment-based, inner child work, existential, Jungian, CBT, and holistic approaches.
My clients come to therapy with a desire to better understand themselves, their patterns, and the implicit beliefs they hold about themselves and the world. They are deep thinkers and feelers with a great appreciation for humor as part of the therapeutic process. They are often striving to become (and befriend) the best version of themselves. Together, we balance insights and perspectives with tools that guide transformation and growth.

Jungian Therapists

How does Jungian therapy work?

Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.

How long does Jungian therapy last?

Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.

Is Jungian therapy effective?

According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.

Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?

Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
