Reika Kawamura (Japanese only)

Nice to meet you, my name is Reika Kawamura and I am a certified psychologist. I completed my studies at the Department of Clinical Psychology at the Graduate School of Clinical Psychology and obtained the qualification of a certified psychologist in 2019. I'm also a clinical psychologist. Currently, in addition to being a school counselor, I also work as a psychologist at a social welfare facility, provide developmental counseling for infants, and teach psychology as a lecturer at a university. Also, while being involved in child-rearing courses, I place myself in a variety of situations to gain a broader perspective.I value being close to what is inside each person and working together to find solutions. I am. In addition to psychological counseling, we also provide developmental testing, psychological testing, and psychological education. Through these tasks, I would like to work with patients and their families to discover the true power within them, without being limited to the form of advice. I strive to use my knowledge and skills to provide warm support in a safe and secure environment. Thank you very much.

SUZUKI Yuko (English only)

Hello, I am Yuko Suzuki, a licensed psychologist in New York State, USA and a certified public psychologist in Japan. I completed a doctoral program in clinical psychology in California, USA in 2004. I worked in a community mental health center in New York City. I felt privileged to be able to work with diverse clients who came from various cultures and ethnicities, trying to deal with many different life challenges and difficulties.

I would like to welcome you all. I currently provide therapy online to those who speak English and live in Japan.
I provide a judgement free space where my clients can slow down, really check in with themselves in the way that they can explore their authentic experiences.

My aspiration is to help my clients get reconnected to the real sense of who they are and how they operate in the world so that they can start making choices that really feel right for them. I am so happy and grateful to have the prospect of being able to accompany and work together with you in your very personal, at times painful, yet flourishing journey.

Kazuyuki Kato (Japanese only)

Hello, my name is Chiyuki Kato and I am a certified psychologist. After completing a graduate school designated as a clinical psychologist, I worked for 5 years as a psychotherapy staff member at a mother and child life support facility, and am currently engaged in counseling, testing, and examination assistance at a psychiatric clinic. At my previous job, many of the people I supported were victims of domestic violence, so I mainly dealt with trauma. For children's trauma, we have been using a therapy called TF-CBT in which parents also participate in the treatment. In addition, in order to respond to child-rearing consultations, I have obtained a qualification in parent training called Triple P, which is based on behavioral therapy, and have been practicing it. In my current position, on a busy day, 500 patients come to the hospital, so I am exposed to a wide variety of cases within the scope of outpatient treatment. There are also 1 to 3 WAIS-IV tests per week. The main orientation is cognitive behavioral therapy, but I am also willing to incorporate it as long as it is useful for the client and that I can understand. I would love to hear from you about any content related to trauma, child rearing, or outpatient psychiatric care, as I would like to work with you to understand and respond to your clients. Thank you very much.

Mai Sumioka (Japanese only)

Hello, my name is Mai Sumioka (certified psychologist). I have been involved in the industrial field for 22 years, and I have also been involved in special needs education for 13 years. Also, at the NPO I started with my friends 17 years ago, I have developed and run the Power of Listening Test, and I teach active listening classes for everyone from beginners to veterans. For counseling to build a relationship of trust with the CL and allow the CL to explore the deepest parts of themselves with peace of mind, both the ``power of mitate'' and the ``power of responses and questions'' are indispensable. Therefore, in addition to reviewing the case, we recommend reviewing the responses using verbatim records in order to specifically reflect on the responses and utilize and hone your unique characteristics. We will help you develop your skills according to your goals and challenges. Please feel free to contact us.

Shuji Kasai (Japanese only)

Nice to meet you. My name is Shuji Kasai, a certified psychologist and clinical psychologist. Currently, I am involved in psychotherapy and psychological testing at a single-specialty psychiatric hospital. In the past, I have worked in university student counseling rooms, school counselors, and government agencies. At SV, we can not only provide case consultations, but also psychological testing consultations. Our orientation focuses on interventions aimed at alleviating symptoms, and we work in an eclectic manner, picking up techniques that may be useful, such as CBT (more than behavioral therapy), relaxation, and self-training methods. We also work on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-I) for sleep disorders. In terms of psychological testing, we mainly specialize in assessing developmental disorders using the Wechsler (WISC-IV, WAIS-IV). The goals of psychotherapy and counseling may vary, but we believe that there is a great need for symptom relief among these diverse directions. If you are interested in this kind of policy, please let us know.

Kazuya Yonekura (Japanese only)

Nice to meet you everyone. My name is Kazuya Yonekura and I am a certified psychologist. He has approximately 39 years of clinical experience and 23 years of SV experience. Having worked in the clinical setting for many years, I have come to realize that ``people are not objects to be cured, but people who heal themselves, grow and heal by their own strength.'' If you have an intractable case or a dropout case like CL, it cannot be denied that there is something unintended in the TH-CL relationship...the unconscious is at work. I have experienced many times that when you accept what is in your unconscious as it is, not as good or bad, and accept it from the bottom of your heart as ``your own,'' some kind of physical, behavioral, and psychological transformation can occur. I have done so. Thanks to my many years of experience in medical institutions, I have a wide scope of practice, and am able to receive SV services in a wide range of areas, from developmental issues, neurosis to psychosis. With the enforcement of the Certified Psychologist Act in 2017, it became mandatory to "provide education and information to disseminate knowledge about mental health," as stated in Chapter 1, Article 2-4. In response to this trend, I would like to be able to remotely share the clinical knowledge that I have cultivated over the years. Thank you very much.
