Self Introduction

Psychological therapist,

Licensed Psychologist, and a Mental Health Worker.

After graduating from university, I have been working in the fields of education and welfare for over 30 years, listening to and supporting people with disabilities and those who are experiencing hardships in their lives.

On the other hand, I have been concerned about mental health issues since I was in my 20s, and while working in welfare, I studied various psychological treatments and counseling, and when I was younger, I also volunteered as a telephone counselor.

 

When I was 37 years old, I learned about the current situation of people with disabilities who have the will to work but do not have a place that would employ them, so together with my friends, I started a natural food bento shop as a place where people with and without disabilities can work together.

As a representative, I was responsible for the overall management of the organization, while at the same time listening to the stories of those I worked with and supporting them so that each one of them could demonstrate their abilities and work with enthusiasm. It was my greatest pleasure to see people with disabilities, who had once lost their confidence, gradually regain their confidence back by being entrusted with tasks, and to see them become energetic and work lively.

 

On the other hand, I myself worked too hard and fell into a downward spiral. I was told I was suffering from burnout so I chose to take some time off.

I wanted to recover quickly, so I went to counseling, which I had originally studied, but this time for myself, and also attended various workshops and seminars.


As I faced myself, realized my previous assumptions, and changed my way of thinking and perceiving things, I gradually got better and was able to return to work.

 

From that experience, I continued to learn and realize how important it is to accept yourself, be firm in who you are, and live your life as you are.

 

In my work, I approached people with mental health problems, listened to their stories, and told them how important each person is and that they can live their lives as they are.

In my private life, I was a single mother raising three children and working full time, but I worked too hard and suffered from depression for the second time.

At that time, I was struggling so hard that I felt hopeless and thought there was nothing good in life. I even compared myself to a fellow worker at the bento shop who had committed suicide.


In 2003, realizing that the situation wasn’t going to improve on its own, I took the leap of faith and moved from Shikoku to Tokyo with my second son, with the intention of starting a new life. With no money, no job, and no acquaintances, we looked for a place to live and place to work from square one.

The ties that had held me back were gone, and I found that I felt refreshed, could sleep well at night, and had more energy.

My second son went to a Steiner school, and I looked for work supporting people with disabilities and continued to work on issues of physical and mental health.

From various studies such as Noguchi Seitai, Takeuchi Lessons, Karakoro Work, and Steiner Education, I became aware of the importance of the subconscious mind.


In the midst of all this, I began receiving work incorporating mindfulness at Mycera Japan, a non-profit organization, in 2017 and experienced the positive effects. I experienced deep awareness by paying attention to my body and feelings instead of just thinking with my head.

Currently, combining what I have learned so far, I conduct mindfulness sessions in which I work on the subconscious mind, paying attention to the body and valuing the sensations and feelings that suddenly come to mind, rather than forcing the mind to think.


As a therapist, I began working professionally as my second job in 2015, and continue to work four weekdays along with my main job. I currently offer courses and private sessions.
