Asian Therapist in NYC – Bilingual Support for Anxiety, Trauma & Perfectionism
Culturally sensitive, bilingual (Japanese-English) therapy that helps you feel truly seen and understood.
Finding the right therapist isn’t just about expertise—it’s also about feeling understood. As an Asian, bilingual therapist based in New York, I offer psychotherapy that honors both your cultural background and your unique story. Whether you are navigating anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma, I provide a safe space where you don’t have to explain everything from the beginning.
Cultural Understanding & Bilingual Support
For many Asian and Asian American clients, cultural values, family dynamics, and identity play an important role in emotional well-being. You may have grown up balancing different cultural expectations—wanting to honor family traditions while also finding your own path.
In therapy with me, you don’t need to leave these cultural experiences at the door. I integrate clinical expertise with cultural sensitivity, offering support that honors both your background and your individuality. Sessions can be conducted in English, Japanese, or a blend of both, depending on what feels most comfortable for you.
My Specialties as an Asian Therapist in NYC
I work with adults who are navigating challenges such as:
Anxiety & High-Functioning Anxiety – learning to calm the inner pressure and worry
Perfectionism & Imposter Syndrome – breaking free from impossible standards
Trauma & Relational Wounds – healing from past pain and cultivating healthier connections
Cross-Cultural Identity & Self-Esteem – embracing your authentic self while navigating different cultural expectations
My approach is experiential and emotion-focused, drawing from AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy). This method emphasizes safety, deep emotional connection, and undoing aloneness—so you don’t have to face challenges by yourself.
