Greetings
Student years are a time of freedom and full of possibilities, but they are also an important time when you face various challenges and/or problems and are forced to think about your lifestyle. Counseling and Psychological Services at the Health Care Center is a place where students can discuss with counselors the various problems they encounter in their student life. The counselors help students find specific ways to cope with and solve problems while discussing them together. This service is available to all Kitasato University students. We hope to help all the students lead a more fulfilling student life and find something important for themselves in the process. Please feel free to use our services.

(1) Counselors will be wearing masks, since the counseling will take place in a small room. We ask that visitors wear masks as well.
(2) Every time you visit, we will ask you to: 1) disinfect your hands, 2) wear a mask properly and 3) check for cold symptoms such as fever (higher than normal body temperature), cough, phlegm, diarrhea, fatigue, etc. If you feel unwell like above symptoms, please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your health condition before coming.

(4) If you have/had cold symptoms such as fever (higher than normal body temperature), cough, phlegm, diarrhea or fatigue after we set up your next appointment date, please call or email Counseling and Psychological Services before coming for your counseling session.

Depending on the circumstances, the names of visitors that the counselor discovered to have COVID-19 had met within a certain period of time may be reported to the public health center and/or your department as “persons of close contact,” and you may be suspended from attending school for a certain period of time. In such cases, a Counseling and Psychological Services staff member will contact you.

After working primarily as an educational counselor and school counselor, I have been involved in student counseling since 2009. Although having problems and worrying about them can be tough and sometimes painful, these experiences often provide important opportunities for personal growth. Especially for university students, it is a natural part of growing up to worry about the self, the future, and the relationships with others, etc. In counseling, I try to provide a safe environment in which the clients are free to explore themselves and help them find their own path. If you have any problems, I will work with you and support you to find solutions. Please feel free to use this service not only when you encounter problems or concerns, but also when you want to deepen your understanding of yourself and/or others, or simply talk to someone about your thoughts and feelings. I look forward to working with you.

【Available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays 9:15~17:30（reception time is until 17:00）】
I have years of clinical experience from my previous work at a psychiatric hospital and several psychosomatic medicine clinics.
I fully understand that it is not easy to continue being yourself while trying to adapt to the group life, especially in a different country and different culture.
During the long journey of life, there will be times when you are faced with difficult choices and confused by the changes, and even feel like you are getting lost. In these moments, you could recover through your self-healing power by simply talking to someone about your feelings, a person who wants to make you feel understood.
In order for your current concerns to lead to new possibilities and personal fulfillment,
I am ready to discuss with you about solutions and help you go further.
Please feel free to come and have a talk here.

在来到博狗体育在线_狗博体育直播【官方授权网站】@的学生相谈室之前，我曾经在心疗诊所和精神科单科医院从事临床心理活动。
我能理解，需要一边去适应集体生活，然后同时又要保持自我，不是一件简单的事。特别是在文化背景不同的异国他乡。
在漫长的人生旅途中有不少的时刻，我们会站在人生的分歧点，我们会跟不上事物变化的脚步，甚至有时候我们会迷失自我。在这样的时刻，如果有一个人能让你去倾诉，让你感受到被理解的感觉，会让你能够更好的发挥你的自我治愈力。为了让你现在的烦恼可以成为促使你成长或者找到新方向的契机，我很愿意和你一起去想解决问题的办法，帮助你继续往前行。
如果有什么让你困扰的事，请随时联系我们。
