(she/her)
In my online practice at Grow Therapy, which is focused on trauma and grief, I only work with older adults (over 50 years old), and also provide parent( caregivers) consultations to those who have young children and who need advice and suggestions. Dr. Yuko is a psychologist licensed in California, New York, and Wyoming who has been working in mental health since 1998. Dr. Yuko's psychodynamic psychotherapy aims to help people become aware of themselves and gain psychological strength (self-confidence) to discover their future and the meaning of their lives. I'm also an experienced child psychologist for very young children (aged from 2 to 6), but I cannot either test them or do play therapy online. But I work as a consultant for parents or caregivers who have young children with Autism, ADHD, intellectual disability, FAS, Genetic disorders, Behavior problems, etc.
I do "attachment theory-based psychodynamic psychotherapy." Accordingly, a "good therapeutic match" and "client's readiness for deep psychodynamic psychotherapy" are critical. And I only work for Trauma and Grief for middle-aged or older adults at Grow Therapy.

In my online practice, I only work with older adults (over 55 years old) who are experiencing Trauma and Grief. I studied "Western Psychology in the US." As an immigrant, I'm clearly aware of how cultural differences affect psychotherapy outcomes. Accordingly, I know my psychodynamic psychotherapy works best for people with Western cultural backgrounds. I'm cautious when I get requests to work with people from other cultural backgrounds since I don't want to overextend myself.
