[Rorschach]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew the name of a good English speaking counsellor or therapist in the Kansai area, preferably around Osaka or Kobe. I have been doing a search on the net and haven't turned up anything really promising. Would appreciate any help.

There is a counselling service in english at one of the hospitals in Kobe. Forget the name but they treat a lot of foreigners. They can also arrange to meet in Osaka. There are a number of counsellors/pschologists.

The number is 078-8562201
