I work with Asian, Asian American, and Japanese adults—often high-functioning professionals, immigrants, bicultural partners, or international spouses—seeking relief from chronic shame, self-criticism, anxiety, perfectionism, or relational pain. These patterns often arise from migration, bicultural identity, international marriage, or intergenerational family dynamics. I help clients recognize repetitive patterns, process attachment wounds and trauma, and rebuild secure, authentic connections through AEDP-informed, attachment-focused therapy. Licensed in CT and NY; accepting clients in CT, NY, FL, and VT (temporary).
AEDP-certified therapist providing emotion-focused, attachment-based, trauma-informed therapy in Japanese and English. Individual online sessions or in-person near southern Westchester. Focus on experiential processing, somatic awareness, relational repair, and cultivating self-compassion and resilience. Free 20-minute phone consultation available.
If you feel stuck between cultures, overwhelmed by self‑criticism, or lonely despite outward success, you’re not alone. I offer a culturally responsive, bilingual space to explore emotions and practice new ways of relating. Free 20‑minute phone consultation. Sliding scale available for an AEDP 16‑session research project; feel free to reach out.
