Mio Yamashita, LMFT
Let's Empty Your Heavy Emotional Baggage
Marriage and Family Therapy/Art Therapy
I provide individual, couple, and family therapies for children, adults and seniors. My approach is client-centered and flexible. I believe everyone has a self-strength to achieve their best when they have enough support in their environment and situations. I support my clients to achieve their goals and healthier lifestyles, so they can feel better about who they really are.
Bio
I was born and raised in Japan and immigrated to the US 12 years ago. I am fluent in Japanese and English.
Because of my personal experiences and training, I am familiar with cross-cultural issues.
