Hi there, I'm Hiroko!

As a therapist, I bring a caring and supportive approach to helping clients of all ages and diverse cultural backgrounds improve their lives and find solutions to their challenges.

My approach

My therapeutic approach focuses on utilizing narrative, collaborative, and solution-focused techniques to help clients gain new perspectives and strategies for positive change. I also incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy when requested by the client, tailoring my approach to their individual needs and goals.

My focus

I work with clients across the lifespan, including children as young as 5, preteens, teenagers, adults, and older adults. My specialties encompass a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, family conflicts, grief, trauma, life transitions, ADHD, ASD, and more.

My communication style

You can expect me to be an attentive, non-judgmental listener who strives to create a safe and supportive environment for you to share your experiences and feelings. Through our collaborative work, I will help you identify and build on your strengths, gain practical coping skills, and find meaningful solutions that align with your values and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a mental health professional stemmed from a deep desire to support others and make a positive difference in their lives. I earned my Master of Arts degree and have experience providing therapy to diverse populations in various settings.

My goals for you

My ultimate goal is to empower you with the self-awareness, emotional resilience, and practical tools you need to overcome obstacles, improve your relationships and quality of life, and achieve a greater sense of well-being and fulfillment. I am dedicated to walking alongside you on your journey of healing and personal growth.

My first session with you

During our initial session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy and collaboratively identify your unique needs, concerns, and aspirations. This will help us establish a strong therapeutic alliance and develop a personalized plan to help you thrive and reach your full potential. I look forward to working with you and supporting you on your path to wellness.
