- My approach to individual counseling/psychotherapy is based on an integrative approach called Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). It is a healing oriented approach, and it brings about a change in how you see/experience yourself and others around you by exploring together your difficult emotions and experiences that are too overwhelming to process and integrate on your own. This process undoes your aloneness and shame, and lets you access the resources, strengths and resilience that has been there inside of you all along.
I take a collaborative approach with my clients, and thus you can always ask me questions about counseling process/techniques etc., give me feedback on what you like/don’t like about our sessions, what is helpful and what is not.

My approach to couples therapy is based on a theory called Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and the research shows that it is one of the most effective approaches in couples therapy. Within this theoretical framework, I help couples see the repetitive patterns in their conflicts, realize and express the underlying deeper emotions beyond anger, and create/recreate secure attachment bond between partners. I have experience working with many couples where one partner is Japanese and the other is from another culture, as well as couples who are from the same culture. I see heterosexual as well as homosexual couples.
