Yuki Yoshida, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Yuki!

I focus on individual adults navigating communication, stress management, depression, and anxiety. I enjoy meeting clients where they are on their own unique journey and joining them in finding ways to empower themselves.

My focus

I most enjoy working with adults dealing with life transitions and adjusting to different situations. These changes can cause depression, anxiety, and stress. I help clients find new perspectives on their situation and identify their own strengths to rely on through changes.

My approach

I most frequently use strength-based, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and some psychodynamic approaches to help clients. I strive to provide a safe environment for clients to explore their feelings, discover their strengths and work through challenging situations. I am a guide for clients as they make decisions and support them through this process.

My communication style

I want to provide a safe space for all my clients where they can share their thoughts and feelings without being judged. I am a firm believer that my clients are the experts on themselves, and I am only a guide in their journey. I collaborate with clients to figure out what steps they ultimately want to take to help themselves in their lives.

My journey to mental healthcare

My approach to goal setting with clients is collaborative and is heavily dictated by the client's wants and needs. I will help clients figure out what will be attainable throughout our time together and check in periodically to monitor progress.

My goals for you

I work collaboratively with clients to set goals based on their wants and needs. Together we determine what is attainable and check in regularly to monitor progress and adjust as needed.

Our first session

My first session focuses on what brought the client to therapy and questions to better understand their situation and perspectives. The first session is about seeing if we will be a good fit and if I can support them in the way they are looking to be supported.
