I work with adults (18 years old and over) throughout California, specializing in depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief and loss, substance abuse, communication skills, transitional work, generational and cultural gap issues for immigrants and their children, and finding purpose in life.

As an Okinawan-American, I wanted someone who would understand my culture and upbringing. Yasuko makes me feel seen and heard, I love her honesty and sessions with her go by so quickly, because I really enjoy talking with her. When I was going through a break-up, she was reassuring and gave me great advice. Highly recommend her!

My belief is that therapy is a collaborative process that empowers you to obtain the insight and wisdom to answer your own questions. I believe that we all inherently possess the tools to solve our most challenging life crises; however, we have lost perspective, support, and compassion toward ourselves and others.

Haley has been solid as my therapist. She's helped me navigate through the fog of my everyday struggles, especially when it comes to managing my stresses. She's very attentive and her feedback has helped me understand me better. I get those epiphany moments when she really helps break down those walls I've built up and lived with. When that happens, at least for me, I see that as heaven scent. I appreciate her more after every session. Haley is awesome. I hope to be a better historian, a better human and a stronger me with every passing day.
