More About Me |

Testimonials from clients or former clients, for reasons of professional ethics, cannot be made public. So I am using this page to tell you more about myself and my background. My parents were first generation immigrants from a small village in Japan. I was always fascinated by body movement, and studied to become a dancer in Los Angeles, where I danced professionally while in my twenties. Later I moved to San Francisco, where I met my future husband. We are longtime residents of the Bay Area and are the proud parents of a daughter, who also became a dancer, as well as a choreographer. After obtaining my teaching credential, I worked for many years as a public school teacher in Hayward, meanwhile continuing my studies to become a psychotherapist. After graduating from the Masters' program in psychotherapy at John Kennedy University, I was accepted as an intern at Blue Oak Psychotherapy Center in Berkeley. It was while interning at Blue Oak that I worked toward obtaining my license as a Marriage and Family Therapist. Later I earned my certificate as a certified Somatic Experience Practitioner. I consider myself both fortunate and privileged to be working in the healing arts, where I feel I have found my true calling in life!
