About Us

For information on how to get help in Japan, check our Ultimate Guide to Mental Health in Japan.

On this page we’ll briefly cover a few of our beliefs when it comes to mental health care in Japan.

Living in a foreign country can be both exciting and overwhelming, and it can take a toll on your mental health.

It can be especially challenging if you also do not speak the language.

That’s where we come in.

Why come see us at Roppongi Clinic?

Foreigner-friendly Mental Health Clinic in Tokyo

We understand the impact that cultural differences, language barriers and being away from family and friends can have on one’s mental health.

At Roppongi Clinic, our staff can speak English and are experienced in working with people from many different backgrounds. We also accept Japanese national insurance, so you can come for a consultation with minimal fees.

Great location: Mental Health Clinic near Roppongi Station

Roppongi Clinic is located in Minato-ku, Tokyo, right next to Roppongi Station. It is a highly international area where many expats choose to live or work in after relocating to Japan for work, studies, or for their partners, and its central location is convenient for people who live anywhere around Tokyo.

Therapy in English in Japan (also available in other languages):

Therapy has been found to be twice as effective for the patient if it’s delivered in their native language. Given the personal and complex nature of therapy, speaking in your native language allows you to discuss your thoughts and feelings fully and deeply.

Our therapists have international experiences that allow them to better understand the complexities and struggles of living abroad, and have great experience helping foreign or international patients.

We currently have therapy available in Japanese, English, Korean, Spanish and Portuguese.

Holistic view on Mental Health: doctors and therapists work together for the best results

Diagnosing and treating people can be complicated, as everyone has different needs. Depending on the mental health condition, some people respond better to psychiatric treatment alone, while others benefit more from talking through their problems with a therapist.

At Roppongi Clinic, our doctors and therapists work together to provide the best service to our patients.

We believe in helping people

The best treatment for you should be firstly based on the best available scientific evidence, but also on how this treatment fits into your lifestyle. The best treatment is ultimately one that you are open to do and stick to.

Psychiatric treatment, psychotherapy or a combination of both has been shown to effectively help people with emotional and/or behavioral problems. Choosing the right treatment approach is key, so various treatment options can be discussed with your psychiatrist, psychologist or mental health professional.
