My Approach to Helping
I would like to serve Japanese community using my past professional as well as personal experience dealing with serious health problems, and other life transition problems. I believe that if the clients process the grief through psychotherapy, she can cope with her problem with best of her ability and find some meanings what she is going through. Japanese people have a stigma to seek counseling but I encourage them to meet an experienced counselor, especially when one lives in foreign country without familial support..
