Clinical Psychologist & Sexologist and Presenter
Dariusz P. Skowronski Ph.D.
I am very devoted to psychology, human sexuality studies, and mental well-being, working both in a clinical and academic setting. I offer high expertise in a wide range of marital, relationships, gender and sexuality issues, sex education and sexual development, sexual health and satisfaction, sexual disorders, sexual addictive behaviors and sexual abuse. I am also passionate about cross-cultural psychology with a special emphasis on international couples and marriages. I believe that the purpose of life is to find your calling and sharing together the best you can offer to others.
Clinical Psychologist
Sachiko Yamashiro M.A.
As your therapist, my role is to assist you in finding your own way to live your life. I may recommend psychological testing if it will clarify your situation and yourself from more objective viewpoint. Through therapy sessions, I will assist you in acquiring new insights and awareness about yourself, to be able to bring about new positive changes in your family and in your life.
