At our center, we accept consultations on the following problems for children and adolescents.
*We currently offer assessment and therpies for children only in Japanese language.
For example ...

・ Development may be delayed
・ Although it is said that the body is normal, the symptoms of the body such as headache, abdominal pain, and diarrhea do not heal.
・ I'm crying all the time and I'm depressed
・ I'm worried because my relationships with my friends aren't working.
・ Tantrum and frustration are intense
・ I have to check it many times
・ Strong commitment
・ Restless
・ Lack of concentration
・ I'm studying, but my grades don't improve
・ Strong anxiety
・ I am scared of trauma such as bullying, violence, and accidents in the past.
At this center, staff with abundant clinical experience perform the following therapies.
Each method has a long way to go on a yearly basis, but we try to make it enjoyable so that we can continue.
Therapiutic Counselling
At our center, we provide therapies based on scientific evidence (evidence) for children's mental problems. We will combine the methods that suit each child and propose the most effective method for them.
*Currently we only offer therapies and counselling only in Japanese.
Cognitive behavioural therapy
This is currently the most effective method for treating children's anxiety and depression. While understanding the connections between your feelings, thoughts, and actions, we will work together to think about ways to get along well. Unlike drug-based treatments, it is important to think about preventive measures that you can take on your own when the next instability occurs, not only during the therapy but also after the therapy is over. The feature is that it can be done.
Dialectical behavior therapy
This method is currently most effective for children who are particularly frustrated and have an outburst of emotional instability, children who are prone to emotional instability due to relationships, and children who hurt themselves. We will think about how to deal with instability, how to observe one's mind, and how to build stable relationships.
EMDR
This is the second most effective method for child trauma after cognitive-behavioral therapy (trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy).
It's a unique way to move your eyes and tap, but it's less traumatic.
Mentalization therapy
It is also an effective method for improving child attachment and parent-child relationships. I will think so that I can exchange the feelings of the other person and my feelings well. At our center, we will incorporate it into conversations and play therapy in basic consultation.
Interpersonal therapy
This method is effective for depression of children over adolescence and problems with eating.
It is a method that leads to improvement of psychological instability by thinking about the current relationship with the person who is most important to you.
Parenting program
Parent training has been shown to be more effective than therapy for children against child frustration and rebellion, especially in the childhood to elementary school age. The program is usually conducted in groups, but at our center, we handle parents individually.
Parenting program
We have compiled a total of 6 individual parenting programs for children's frustration and rebellion!
In addition to traditional evidenced parenting programs
The content will be tailor-made based on the situation of each child.
Target age: From around 4 years old to elementary school age
Period: Once every other week, for about 3 months
Cost: 10% discount similar to standard course (£ 135 3 times per month)
Format: Either face-to-face or online.
Proceed while watching slide materials and videos.
To apply, please select "Children's Frustrated Parenting Program" from the reservation form.
Behavioural therapy
Behavioural therapy promotes the development of children with uneven development.
At our center, we provide a one-to-one program talored to the individual needs.
*We currently offer therapy for children under the age of 6.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
ABA is the most effective treatment method for autism spectrum disorders.
While playing with the therapist, we will promote the development of language and sociality.
In particular, for young children, we also have a plan that allows you to receive 10 hours of medical care per week, which is close to the most scientifically effective 15 hours per week, which is difficult to receive even in Japan.
In addition, parents can also participate so that they can practice nursing at home.
Social skills training
Social Skills Training (SST) is a way to improve your child's communication and interpersonal skills. While accepting the feelings of the other person, you can engage in conversations and actions that convey your thoughts, and think about how you can interact with people by devising ways to grasp the facial expressions and situations of people that cannot be conveyed in words. We will train together while creating various situations.
You can watch the recording of the lecture about the points of rehabilitation and SST.
There are many important points for medical treatment, so please have a look.

Learning support
We will assess the characteristics of the brain and support learning with the most effective learning method according to the type of the child's brain. You can also share the content with your school teachers (see the Psychological Test section for more information on the assessment).
*We do not offer learning support in English.
Difficulty in reading and writing Japanese and English
Studies have shown that for children who are good at talking but are not good at reading and writing characters, reading and writing kanji, writing and diary, just doing a drill does not improve the learning effect. We will propose effective learning methods according to your child's brain type, work on homework and tasks together, and we will work on tasks according to your child's brain type.
Arithmetic
The characteristics of the brain are related to the weaknesses of math, such as using fingers forever to calculate, being able to calculate but not good at word problems, not being able to calculate by hand, and not being good at figures. We perform assessments to enhance the learning effect of children who are not good at math and learning support according to the type of brain.
You can watch the recording of the lecture about the points of learning support.
There are many important points of learning support that match the characteristics of your brain, so please take a look.
