I work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I specialize in issues related to divorce, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship/attachment difficulties, issues surrounding pregnancy, parenting, and cultural adjustment challenges. I provide psychological assessments for children and adults who are struggling at home and/or at school or work due to social and emotional issues, relationship issues, environmental stressors, behavioral challenges, attention and concentration difficulties, and learning differences. I also conduct child custody evaluations and forensic psychological evaluations.
I provide a safe place for you to explore the difficulties and start the path to change. My goals are to help you feel relief from pain and feeling stuck so that you can feel better about yourself. Ultimately, I hope to restore you and your family to how you want to be.
Besides English, I speak fluent Japanese and am able to provide therapy in Japanese.
