More about Yuka

  • 24 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in Southern California with 24 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress (work and personal), anxiety, depression, grief, life transition, motivation, self esteem, & interpersonal communication issues. Have you ever felt that your negative self-talk prevented you from achieving your goals or it's hard for you to say no to people's request, but later, you regret it or become stressed out? You are not alone! I have some tools to assist you. Thoughts (self-talk), emotions, and behaviors are intertwined, thus, by changing the way you think, you can change the way you feel. If you are ready to discover this trick and change your thoughts, I'm your coach! It takes courage to seek help and take the first steps towards a change, but change is possible. I am here to support & empower you in this amazing journey!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
