Kobayashi Mental Clinic
About
Kobayashi Mental Clinic is a psychiatric clinic located in Kitasagadori, Chuo Ward, Kobe City. Situated on the 5th floor of Grand Plaza Toa Building, the facility is wheelchair accessible. A distinctive feature of this clinic is that the physician has undergone over 10 years of systematic training with the Japan Psychoanalytic Association and places strong emphasis on psychotherapy (counseling). Rather than merely aiming to alleviate symptoms, the clinic's treatment philosophy focuses on supporting each patient's individual personality and life circumstances to help them achieve psychological well-being. General consultations are available on weekdays from 9 AM to 12 PM and 4 PM to 7 PM, while the 2 PM to 4 PM slot is reserved for psychotherapy sessions. On Saturdays, general consultations run from 9 AM to 1 PM, with psychotherapy available from 3 PM to 6 PM. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, public holidays, as well as during the New Year and Bon periods. English interpretation is available, making the clinic accessible to those who require communication in languages other than Japanese. Initial consultations are by appointment only, so advance booking is recommended.
