Makiko Guji

Japanese

Licensed Psychologist

I provide online counseling sessions using Zoom, Skype.

I help individuals and couples working through depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance abuse, relationship issues, life transition, and personal growth. I also embrace the Holistic approach to health which is to attempt to heal the whole person including body, mind and spiritual levels. My modalities include Psychodynamics, Humanistic, Existential, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, DBT, Somatic Experiencing, and Motivational Interviewing.

My therapy practice incorporates Mindfulness approach that promotes 'here and now' awareness to prevent dwelling in the past or future tripping. I enjoy working with culturally diverse clients including LGBT and various religious and ethnic backgrounds.
