About Sachie

Sachie Uchimaru is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 17 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and ADHD. She speaks English and Japanese and brings a background that includes supporting people adjusting to college life and managing executive functioning challenges.

Sachie keeps sessions direct and practical. She helps people break down problems into manageable steps. She offers straightforward strategies for daily worries, mood changes, concentration, and post-trauma reactions. Sessions are described in clear, everyday language and often include concrete tools to try between meetings.

Her work includes support for college transition tasks and organizing routines that improve focus and follow-through. For ADHD-related concerns she addresses planning, time management, and small environmental changes that reduce overwhelm. For anxiety and depression she uses problem-focused discussions alongside techniques to reduce distress in daily life.

Being bilingual, Sachie can conduct sessions in Japanese as well as English, which can help with expressing cultural or language-specific concerns. Her California license is noted as LCSW, and she draws on many years of clinical experience to guide decisions about goals and next steps.

People looking for a practical, legally licensed social worker who emphasizes day-to-day skills and clearer routines may find her approach helpful. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats to match scheduling needs.

BHow sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Sachie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address everyday problems and distress. One approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and low mood through behavior changes and short practical exercises. This helps people reduce overwhelming feelings and handle daily demands more effectively.

Another common focus is interventions for attention and executive functioning. These techniques break tasks into smaller steps, set simple routines, and use concrete planning methods to improve follow-through and time management. Such methods are useful for school, work, and daily responsibilities.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Sachie will talk with each person about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they pick methods that match the person's needs and preferences, and they adjust the plan as progress is seen.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know which options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also allow working with a clinician who speaks your language without changing your location.
