Therapeutic conversations for all

Cultivating a New Life is a small group, private practice offering culturally-affirming psychotherapy and Peer Support Specialist Training. Our mission is to expand access to service for those who might not usually seek it, including members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.

Our life’s journey is like Kintsugi—a traditional Japanese art of mending broken pottery with lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. In this way, the cracks become a testament to the history and resilience of the object, making it even more beautiful and unique. This is how I approach therapy: as a way to help you reclaim the pieces of yourself that trauma has taken away, piecing them together with the gentle power of self-compassion, so that you can meet and embrace the whole, authentic version of yourself.

"Fumi is an insightful, compassionate, and skillful therapist. She provides an objective perspective and delivers her advice and counseling in a supportive, empathic way. Fumi is also incredibly queer-friendly and sensitive to the issues of folks in LGBTQIA2S+ communities. I always feel safe, respected, and encouraged to share, and always feel that Fumi welcomes my input with regard to my care. I feel that I've made great progress with anxiety, depression, and maintaining healthy relationships under Fumi's guidance and care. I would recommend her to anyone."
