English Speaking Counseling Service In Yokosuka

Many persons in need of mental health care in the U.S. military prefer to receive private and confidential care off-base. The American therapists at the Meguro Counseling Center are available for either face-to-face counseling or phone/Skype psychotherapy, and psychological counseling, for Western persons and/or native persons living in the Yokosuka area, both in English or in Japanese. The Meguro Counseling Center therapists are experienced in individual mental health counseling, marriage and couples counseling; particularly Japanese-Western couples, child and adolescent counseling, family therapy, and group psychotherapy. Many American Navy and other civilian and Western persons live in the Yokosuka area, and the therapists at the Meguro Counseling Center are very familiar with the psychological needs of Americans working on military bases in Japan. While located in Tokyo, the Meguro Counseling Center is only 80-minutes by train from Yokosuka, and also provides effective therapy and counseling by phone or skype if travel to our offices is difficult.

Yokosuka is probably the most central U.S. Navy base in Japan. Many retired Navy personnel have Japanese spouses and continue to live and work as civilians after retirement from the Navy. There are also many persons associated with DoD-related jobs on the base (teachers, technical staff, etc.), and persons connected to the base often seek counseling related to issues in their work and social lives that is common across persons at these bases in Japan.

Please feel free to contact the Center if you or a loved one is in need of help.
