Hi, I'm Miku and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT #45206) registered in California. I was born in Tokyo, Japan and raised in Los Angeles, California. I earned my master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and my Bachelors of Arts in sociology and anthropology from Sophia University in Tokyo, Japan. I received extensive training at The Road Ahead Family Services working with a diverse range of adults, teenagers, families, and couples. Additionally I received unique training in working with the geriatric population with dementia and their caregivers at OPICA Adult Day Care Program & Counseling Center. I provide a holistic approach to psychotherapy where we unburden not just the present but the past and therefore our future in a multidisciplinary and harmonious approach that honors your feelings without judgment, uncovers your true heart desires, and nurtures your current skills and learned skills to achieve a more fulfilling and ever expansive life.
