Struggling with anxiety in Japan? You're not alone..

Specialized therapy for expats in Japan:
Social Anxiety, Panic, OCD, Phobias, & More

Living in Japan as a foreigner can be exciting, but it can also be isolating and emotionally exhausting.

If you're experiencing anxiety, panic episodes, intrusive thoughts, or a deep sense of not belonging, it's not "just you."

I specialize in helping expats in Japan build insight into unhelpful patterns and develop counterintuitive, evidence-based skills to work through anxiety in many forms:

What You Might be Feeling . . .

  • Constant worry that interferes with work or relationships
  • Feeling disconnected or overwhelmed in social situations
  • Sudden panic that seems to come out of nowhere
  • Intrusive thoughts that are difficult to control
  • Difficulty adjusting to Japanese cultural expectations or routines
  • A general sense of stress, tension, or "never feeling settled"

How Therapy Can Help

I offer therapy that is collaborative and focused on tailored, practical tools so you can:

  • Better understand patterns that reinforce anxiety
  • Explore counterintuitive strategies to shift how you relate to anxiety
  • Build resilience and self-trust
  • Reconnect with who you are — beyond anxiety
  • Develop more fulfilling relationships

I use a blended approach, drawing from a variety of evidence-based therapies:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)
  • Motivational Interviewing (MI)
  • Person-Centered Therapy

Therapy Begins with A Simple Conversation...

Our first step is a free video consultation to:

  • Talk about your concerns and the things you want to change
  • Explore if we're a good fit
  • Talk about how we might collaborate on a path towards change

There's no expectation to start therapy and if I'm not a good fit, I can assist in finding you a therapist who is.
