Our goal is to restore the connection between our body and mind in order to have more balanced life, stimulate the body's natural ability to heal its self, and strengthen our mind to actualize our greatest potentials. We believe that our health and wellness come from three dimensions, physical, psychological, and spiritual.
We cannot divide our body into parts to merely treat symptoms and just wait till next symptoms appear. Physical symptoms or pain can be a manifestation of emotional pain, or depression and anxiety can be a manifestation of stagnations in the body. It is all interconnected, and cannot be separated.

Herbs will be prescribed based on our diagnosis, and are used to help your body regain natural balance. These herbs work gently in your body to stimulate the body's natural healing mechanism. I look at your tongue and take your pulse, and palpate some acupuncture points in the body to determine our diagnosis.
Counseling brings us awareness of our thinking patterns, and feelings and intentions which may not be well recognized. Awareness of ourselves shines light on these irrational actions we take, and helps us to stop and take a new action leading to the result we prefer. Counseling is the process to recreate your preferred reality.

I came to see Yasuko because I was very traumatized from leaving an abusive situation. I thought with her combination of therapies she would help me heal and be comforting. She was judgemental and offered no compassion or comfort. It ended up being a more hurtful and scary experience. It was a critical time for me and it really sucks to have a therapist that did not show any compassion or understanding.
