Tami Yamashita-Emhof

My communication style

I provide compassionate care with a strong focus on transforming dysfunctional thought patterns and managing daily stressors. I guide you toward healing, resilience, and a more balanced life in a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions and experiences.

My journey to mental healthcare

I struggled with an eating disorder for most of my young adult life. Since recovering, I have always wanted to help others with their disordered eating and destructive thought patterns. I learned how mindfulness practices can be extremely beneficial to recovery and healing from any addiction.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting in a way that is patient-centered and strength-based. I focus on empowering you by building on your existing strengths and ensuring that goals are meaningful and aligned with your values. I am flexible and willing to adapt goals as your situation changes.

Our first session

During our initial session, I focus on establishing a strong therapeutic relationship and collaboratively identifying the focus and goals of therapy. I create a welcoming and non-judgmental environment where you feel safe to share your thoughts and feelings.
