In the past thirty years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that all therapy is, in a sense, grief therapy. I began working as a volunteer with Hospice, and although I am trained and practiced in trauma and developmental techniques, I specialize my work with grief and loss. I help my clients walk through the profoundly life-changing territory of losses that can seem impossible to accept and heal from. Because we live in a culture that makes little room for it, I create a place and time for people to unpack their losses and, with time, grow into acceptance. Please let me know if I can help.

If this sounds like you or your family, you are not alone. For the past 25 years I have been providing therapy to children, adolescents, adults and families. Many of the clients I see have a history of trauma and struggle with anxiety, fluctuating moods, issues related to self-esteem, challenging behaviors and complications in relationships.

I provide targeted care for those in the health care professions, such as nurses, PAs and doctors. Emphases include psychological issues related to psychological or physical trauma, death/grief, and illness/injury.

Grief is not about "getting over it." It's not a medical condition that needs to be cured, nor does it fit into a box. It is about loss...a break up, death of a loved one, end of a friendship, job loss or the end of a career, divorce, or the loss of a dream. Some days it may feel like you are drowning in a tidal wave of sadness. Other days, a pocket of grief envelopes you because of a song, smell, or memory. You grieve as deeply as you love, and your grief demands to be felt!

Life is hectic, and at times, it can be downright brutal! However, our culture rewards those who "push through" regardless of their circumstances. Before long, you're five miles to empty. You have no energy, you're not sleeping well, you're irritable, depressed, anxious, and at times emotionally detached from everything and everyone. My ideal client is someone who is looking to slow down and drown out the noises stifling their inner voice. Mourning loss, cultivating self-acceptance, creating useful internal dialogue, and establishing boundaries are possible when we choose to stop running on fumes and allow ourselves to be still.

"I feel like I'm carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders." "I struggle to perform daily tasks because I've lost the motivation." "I don't know who I am anymore." You aren't alone, nor do you have to carry all of that weight by yourself.

It is important to me that my clients feel understood and heard in the therapy room; I value collaboration and developing a strong therapeutic relationship. I work to support, empower, and gently challenge my clients in order to help meet their goals and create a life of meaning. I believe that therapy should be personal and individualized, and operate from a cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy and EMDR framework.

I was born and raised in Kyoto, Japan and am bilingual in English and Japanese. My work as a counselor began in 2017 at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, where I provided spiritual care counseling to a socially, economically, and culturally diverse population. Currently, I specialize in individual and couples therapy, including couples struggling due to cultural barriers. My clinical experience with a diverse population and my own cultural experience as an Asian immigrant affirmed my view that willingness and ability to see through different lenses are indispensable for compassionate care.
