Yasuko Mikajiri, LMFT

Yasuko Mikajiri, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Yasuko! My name is Yasuko (pronounced "Yasco") Mikajiri (??? ??), and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Long Beach, California. I earned my Master?s in Psychology from Antioch University. Via Telehealth, I work with adults (18 years old and over) throughout California, specializing in Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Grief & Loss, Substance Abuse, Communication Skills, Transitional Work, Generational/Cultural Gap Issues for Immigrants, and Purpose in Life, etc. My approach My approach to therapy is a combination of therapy techniques tailored to your individual needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you transform patterns of negative thinking into positive ones. Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you accept all your emotions, move forward, and take action toward the direction of your value system. Person-Centered, Solution-Focused, and Existential Therapy help you develop your own destiny by unleashing your full potential for your future, away from somebody else?s expectations or pressures. My focus During my 20 years of therapy experience, learning from a variety of clients and issues, I have felt extremely honored to be part of your journey in helping you reduce pain, feelings of loss, and seek your purpose in life in order to live truthfully to yourself. My communication style I mostly use a Motivational Interviewing Technique: listening attentively, respecting your motivation, and reflecting on your stories with clarifications, in a very safe and warm space where you can relax and focus entirely on your life stories. In short, you talk, and I listen. My journey to mental healthcare My first exposure to psychological events was through women in our community who used to visit our home for advice from my mother, a school teacher, for their family problems. For an innocent 4th grader, that was a big shock but fascinating. Looking back, I may have been thinking of becoming a therapist unconsciously.
