Mr. Yagami, MSEd., MHC-LP, is a Mental Health Counselor with a Master of Science in Education in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University. After Fordham, he conducted research in developmental/neurodevelopmental psychology at the University of Oregon, examining how early-life experiences shape and condition the way we experience the world. Mr. Yagami has experience as an outpatient mental health provider, providing psychotherapy to adults and adolescents.

Mr. Yagami believes that our current challenges, whether it be anxiety, depression, or relational difficulties, are very often rooted in our childhood. Understanding the origins of how we think, feel, and behave is a vital step toward freeing ourselves from conditioned patterns and reconnecting with a more authentic sense of self.

Mr. Yagami utilizes trauma-informed CBT, attachment, and acceptance-and-change frameworks. He works with diverse populations who are interested in exploring the core of their challenges and creating lasting change. To facilitate this, the quality of the client-and-therapist alliance becomes key, because in this alliance, a more secure sense of self is cultivated, which is the foundation for confidence and self-compassion. He considers himself not only a therapist, but also a cheerleader, advocate, and confidant. His therapy space is where clients are met with unconditional positive regard, compassion, and the freedom to be their authentic selves, and develop trust in their capabilities to navigate the world as best they can.
