Yuka Oshimi, MC, RCC
Hello!
My name is Yuka (She/Her) and I am glad that you are here. I hold a Master of Counselling degree from Monash University, a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia with a Major in Psychology and a Minor in Law and Society, and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors. Additionally, I am currently pursuing my Doctor of Counselling and Psychotherapy degree.
Your journey is unique, and so is your strength to overcome it. I believe that one’s past, pain, and struggles are unique to each individual, and that you are the expert of your own experience. I also believe that within each of us, there lies a resilience and inner strength, an ability to heal and grow to lead a fulfilling life. I am dedicated to meeting you wherever you are, and walking alongside you on your journey towards unlocking your innate potential for healing and growth.
Specializing in areas such as Anxiety, ADHD, Autism, Depression, Grief/Loss, Neurodiversity, School/Career, and Stress Management, I offer tailored support to address your unique needs. I provide counselling services to both neurodiverse and neurotypical individuals, and work with adolescents and adults both virtually and in-person. My own journey with physical and mental illness has fueled my passion for clinical counselling, highlighting the importance of holistic well-being encompassing both mind and body. Born in Japan and raised in Singapore, I honour diversity by adopting a collaborative, empathic and eclectic approach in my counselling practice that honors the uniqueness of each individual’s experiences.
In addition, as a neurodivergent individual, I prioritize a neuro-affirming approach, recognizing the importance of affirming all identities within the counselling space. Whether you identify as neurodivergent or neurotypical, I am dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where everyone’s unique strengths and needs are valued and understood.
I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities into my practice to create an integrative therapeutic approach that is tailored to your goals and needs, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.
I look forward to meeting with you to explore your strengths and goals and to support you on your journey.
