Welcome! I'm Ayaka and I'm a Japanese-American psychotherapist who works primarily with high-achieving adults and interracial couples in their 20s and 30s. Do you often feel burnt out from always being the "dependable" and "responsible" one? Ever find yourself battling endless self-criticism and an urge to do everything perfectly and be in control all the time? If you're struggling to break free from these patterns and seeking healthier relationships with yourself and others, I would love to help!

Pain and more in Japanese and English.
Hypnosis is not controlling people, as is often depicted in the movies. Hypnosis is an effective scientific technique that puts your brain function at a maximum level to help you best solve your troubled issues. In a subconscious/hypnotized state, you can recall any information even though it is deeply buried in your mind. With your subconscious mind, you can simply understand information that is given to you better than ever. Your subconscious mind gives the strongest support to your own will to overcome dieting or quitting smoking. It works, so I shifted my career to an emphasis on hypnotherapy.

I offer sessions in English and Japanese.
Do you have difficulty connecting with the people most important to you? Do you find yourself feeling stuck, unable to communicate your needs, wondering what the future will bring? For many, loneliness, lack of support, or instability in a relationship can be a source of stress, anxiety and depression. Therapy is a place where you can shed light on who you are as a person, recognize what holds you back and understand what can be done to help you move forward. It is an opportunity to learn how to be present in your important relationships and make choices from a place of confidence and clarity.

I am dedicated to working with clients whose personality and life experience were shaped by more than one culture: You might be an international student or in your 20's or 30's navigating anxiety. You might have been raised by 1st generation Asian parents or one and half or 2nd generation immigrants. You might be struggling in a relationship where you and your partner come from different cultural backgrounds not feeling understood. You are in the relationship but you both feel alone in the relationship. I love to help. I work with clients individually and as couples.

My aim as a psychotherapist is to help individuals and couples stop repeating destructive and self-defeating patterns of behavior. I do so by helping people gain deeper understanding of their issues and the complex factors that underlie such patterns. We humans cling to familiar way of coping, even if we know that our behavior is no longer serving us, or is even hurting us. Understanding why we do what we do in the present will not only help us understand ourselves but will also help us let go of the familiar but dysfunctional way of coping with life events.

Life brings about a series of transitions, and transitions invariably lead to change. But making changes is not always so easy. Taking charge of your life, even taking action to make changes, can be challenging and even frightening - especially if you are already suffering from depression, anxiety, phobias or addictions, or when any of these symptoms starts affecting your professional life, interpersonal relationships, creative work or your day-to-day existence. I can help you to move forward as we work together in an environment safe from feelings of fear, shame or guilt.
