Professional statement

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience, specializing in helping clients navigate a broad range of mental health challenges and life issues. I offer psychotherapy in both English and Japanese, with extensive experience working with individuals of Asian descent.

Holding LCSW licenses in both New York and New Jersey, I am able to provide telehealth sessions to clients in these states. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, focused on warmth, empathy, and non-judgmental support. I prioritize building strong, collaborative relationships with my clients to effectively address psychological and behavioral challenges.

In addition, I utilize a strengths-based approach to empower clients and promote lasting growth. I am truly interested in learning about you and your unique experiences. I believe that everyone has inherent strengths and abilities to overcome challenges, and I am here to help you tap into those resources.

I currently work as a psychotherapy at Hamilton Madison House, a leading behavioral health services provider for New York City's Asian community.
