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!
