Daikanyama Yamabiko Clinic

About

Daikanyama Yamabiko Clinic is a child and adolescent psychiatry, psychosomatic medicine, and adult psychiatry clinic specializing in women's Kampo (traditional herbal) medicine, located in a peaceful area within walking distance of Shibuya, Ebisu, and Daikanyama. The clinic provides support for various concerns including school refusal and adaptation, peer relationships, excessive gaming and smartphone use, self-harm, overeating, social withdrawal, hypersensitivity, and parent-child relationships, serving both children and adults with developmental disorders such as ADHD, autism, and Asperger's syndrome. The clinic adopts a supportive approach that views the child as the main protagonist of their treatment, offering choices to help them engage proactively and think independently, while also emphasizing early intervention before a formal developmental disorder diagnosis to improve daily life and prevent secondary disorders. Care is provided not only for children but also for parents' mental and physical health and the entire family, with support for life-stage challenges from infancy through adulthood that includes collaboration with specialists and utilization of community resources. The clinic maintains coordination with schools and other institutions, responding to issues that arise outside the home while ensuring understanding from the individual and family. English-speaking consultation is available, and examinations can be conducted as needed. The affiliated Yamabiko Village offers "Learn," "Heal," and "Connect" programs including study sessions, parent training, and various creative events for mothers and children facing parenting challenges, not limited to developmental disorders, while also providing counseling and consultation on disability welfare services for everyone from children to adults.
