(updated 8 April, 2020)
We at Tokyo Mental Health are concerned about both the potential impact of COVID-19 and the policies aimed at controlling it on mental health, and are dedicated to providing professional support during this period of uncertainty. Tokyo Mental Health will endeavour to continue to meet your mental health needs throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.
Information for everyone:
If you feel that you would like to receive additional support for your mental health during this time, you can find accurate and useful information about the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health on our website. You can also read our latest blog about the potential negative effects of social distancing on mental health and ways to reduce these effects. Additionally, you can book an appointment with one of our licensed and experienced counselors. We offer both video-counseling appointments for those who wish to seek therapy from the comfort of their home, and appointments at our therapy office face to face where needed.

Our experienced counselors can offer therapy on-site or online for children and adolescents who may be struggling to get help for their mental health, now that schools are closed. Our psychologists are also still open to carry out psychological evaluations for school-aged children and adolescents despite changes in the learning environment. We can provide an accurate assessment of mental disorders such as depression, anxiety and OCD, and neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD, learning disorders and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Some assessments may be provided via online platforms with medical support where needed by Dr Andrew Kissane at American Clinic Tokyo.
