When I first met with Atsuko, I was at a low point: emotionally hurting, sad, angry, depressed, and desperate. My wife was in severe emotional pain due to my recent actions. I did not know how to move forward. I wanted a pathway to recovery for me and my wife, but I did not know how to get there. I had just ended sessions with another therapist, who somewhat benefitted me, but ultimately, I did not feel they would help me find my path to recovery.
From the first session with Atsuko, I felt she empathized and understood what my wife and I were going through. She provided insight and suggestions for how I could start the healing process. With each session, she helped me build on the previous work to continue the healing process. Some sessions were quite challenging, but by the end of them, I felt progress and new hope. With Atsuko’s help, my wife and I have begun a new chapter together and I have a new deep gratefulness for everything. I feel Atsuko uses her unique combination of intuition and experience to lovingly guide her patients through their healing process at a speed that is comfortable to them. She is a gifted healer who is extremely dedicated to her patients. I feel very fortunate that my wife and I found her when we did. Thank you, Atsuko!

TESTIMONIALS
I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional support and guidance I have received from Atsuko, a highly skilled energy healer based in the Seattle area. Throughout my life, I have faced numerous challenges and traumas, which had a profound impact on my overall well-being. In 2020, I found myself single and living alone after enduring an abusive relationship for many years. While I was thrilled to be free from that situation, I was struggling internally with depression and self-loathing. My physical health also deteriorated, and I experienced frequent vomiting spells that disrupted my daily life and caused significant weight loss.
Despite seeking medical attention and support from friends and family, the root cause of my ailments remained elusive. It was during this challenging time that I embarked on a personal journey of healing, recognizing the potential emotional origins of my physical symptoms. Through meditation and self-soothing techniques, I gained a deeper understanding of the mind's power and the significance of energy.
My search for an energy healer led me to Atsuko's website, where I felt an immediate sense of calm and connection. After our first session, I experienced a profound sense of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from my shoulders. Atsuko's expertise enabled me to delve into my past and childhood experiences, gaining insights into the underlying reasons behind my current state.
Since commencing therapy with Atsuko, I have witnessed remarkable transformations in my life. My daily routines have improved significantly, with consistent sleep patterns and a renewed sense of self-care. The pain and discomfort that once plagued me have subsided, allowing me to embrace life with greater vitality and enthusiasm.
Atsuko's guidance has not only enhanced my personal well-being but also positively impacted my professional life. I have become more effective in my role, demonstrating improved leadership and interpersonal skills. My relationships with colleagues, friends, and family have flourished, as I am now better equipped to navigate challenges with confidence and resilience.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to work with Atsuko and highly recommend her services to anyone seeking profound healing and personal growth. Her ability to facilitate deep emotional healing and empower individuals to reach their full potential is truly remarkable.

My former counselor referred me to Atsuko five years ago, and I was so impressed with how intuitive she was at the session. However, for some reason I did not follow through the treatment with her at that time.
In December 2023, I thought that my marriage of 23 years was over. I was devastated and confused. I knew I needed help, not counseling or therapy, but significant help. Then, I remembered Atsuko. When I contacted her, I was not sure what I really wanted for myself or what to expect from Atsuko. From the very first session with her, she gave me abundant support and guidance. She is incredibly intuitive, patient, and straightforward. Sometimes, it was hard for me to swallow what she initially said, but after a few weeks or so, everything became clear, and I was able to accept it.
During my journey guided by Atsuko, I not only found hope in my marriage but also got in touch with myself, whom I had lost and been looking for in the last few decades. I am forever grateful for Atsuko because if I had not received her healing sessions, I would be far from the physically and emotionally healthier person that I am now. Now, I feel more confident about navigating my marriage and my life in general.
I know my spiritual journey has just begun, and it will be a life-long learning process. Atsuko helped me get back to the start line and guided me through the process so that I wouldn’t go off the track. “

I had been on a spiritual healing journey for over a decade, very intentionally processing trauma around my upbringing in the church, my relationships and family dynamics, and my physical health. Even though I felt I had come such a long way, and could see clearly what state of being I was reaching for, I was exhausted with the whole concept of "healing" and wondered if it would ever end....If I would ever actually feel healed. I was over it. It seemed like no matter how much I worked at it, and how much my understanding expanded, there were still blockages within me that I could feel preventing me from fully accepting where I was. I had reached a spiritual and energetic plateau, and I felt stuck and frustrated with myself.
On top of that, in November of 2022 I got a severe respiratory infection that shut me down completely for almost six months. My body was reflecting my emotional state, and I had no choice but to surrender to exhaustion. It was at this time of complete surrender that I met Atsuko, and I immediately felt I could be open with her about where I was at. She was able to help me identify and release specific sticking points in my energy field that I knew were there, but had no idea how to let go. With her compassionate support, and intuitive guidance, I was able to reach a more balanced state, in acceptance of all that has happened and appreciation for how far I've come. It was so comforting to have a partnership with her at this stage of my journey, when I had done so much soul work in isolation. I'm so grateful to feel forward momentum from a more aligned and balanced state than ever before.

Atsuko Arai is a very talented energy worker and healer. I have been working with Atsuko on and off for probably four or five years. My first session with her honestly blew my mind. I felt wind rushing through me and other sensations that are just indescribable and quite unbelievable if I wrote them all down. She really helped clear out a lot of “junk.” My sessions with her over the years have included body work, but have shifted to more of a constellation of talking through issues as well as working through energy shifts that I am experiencing. Atsuko is a strong intuitive and can tap into the thoughts and feelings around a certain issue or person. She is a mentor to me in many ways and has given me very good advice in my own meditative practice. She has a strong and warm maternal feeling to her, but she will also give it to you straight and will tell you how it is (which is also much needed at times). My visits with her are not regular or scheduled, but she is always available when I need a spiritual tune-up. I would recommend anyone to Atsuko that is looking for help and guidance through energy work and spiritual healing.

Atsuko’s healing work is gentle, intuitive and effective. She has worked on me for more than ten years and during that time has relieved the pain of injuries and surgeries, and increased my ability to function daily with more vitality. Her intuition helps reveal and heal hidden stresses within the body, and often their original causes as well. That has resulted in lasting benefits for me.

Working with Atsuko was an immediate connection with my heart. I appreciated her demeanor to make me feel comfortable right away with her. Even though our appointments were virtual, she generated a feeling of warmth and light-heartedness that enabled me to open up quickly and start to work on resolving a long-held energy block within just a couple of sessions. So grateful for the opportunity to have Atsuko’s gifts help in my healing process and I look forward to working with her more.

Ten years ago, my 93-year-old mother was very ill and lay dying. She could no longer speak and slept much of the time but was obviously disturbed and unable to let go. I had tried everything I could think of to relieve her anxiety and give her the encouragement to transition to a new life. I was sharing this one afternoon with a person who had been my mother’s beloved caregiver for many years. She said she had a friend who had psychic abilities and asked if I would like for her to bring her to be with my mother. I jumped at the opportunity. Atsuko arrived that evening. Standing by my mother’s bedside, Atsuko channeled messages from my mother to each of her family members present. Any disagreements we had experienced during our lifetime together began to melt away. She was able to share the deepest desires of her soul with an honesty we had never heard before. She became more peaceful over the next few days. We held a celebration of her life in which she was able to joyfully participate (still without words) with her closest family and friends. She always loved a party! Atsuko suggested we bring her a blue Celestine crystal to help her access the angels, which my mother held, and which is now beside my bed.
My mother peacefully transitioned a few days later. Because of Atsuko’s service to us all, both my sibling and I enjoy a deep love and gratitude for her. Our lives together had often been full of conflict and misunderstanding. Now, just peace! A gift that we had never expected, but for which will be forever grateful. In those 10 years since Atsuko has contacted my mother for me to reassure me that she is living joyfully. She has also contacted my baby who transitioned just a few hours after being born many years ago. So many unanswered questions regarding that loss have been answered. Again, peace. My baby and my mother showed up together during a recent reading with Atsuko. Peace.
I have also spent many hours of personal therapy with Atsuko since our first meeting all those years ago. She has made a difference in so many parts of my life. Again, the same result applies: peace.

A good friend referred me to Atsuko three years ago. Even after several sessions with her, he seemed unable to explain what she did exactly. He just knew that he felt 100% better and seemed to have connected with Atsuko deeply.
My first session with Atsuko was similar. Upon arrival we talked openly; I explained how I had been feeling and what was happening in my body. We spoke more about work, my close relationships with my wife, father and brother and then started our session. After 15 or 20 minutes into the session Atsuko asked if I was ready to hear the reason I was really here. This was somewhat of a surprise, as you can imagine; my answer was yes. This is when I truly learned how loved ones can physically affect our bodies. Perhaps I had heard this before, but it never sank like this.
After the session, of course, I felt better, like a weight had been lifted from my body. My rib cage felt free and my head was light, almost floating on top of my shoulders. More importantly, as time went on, more of her words and wisdom sank in as I began to better understand the meaning of our session and her work. Atsuko‘s work changed my life after just one session. I am a better man from it, a deeper intentioned practitioner, a more present father, a more honest son, a more supportive brother and more loving husband. I have returned to see Atsuko many times and each time our sessions progress in a personal and profound way.

I grew up in a family that wasn’t open and didn’t understand energy work. When I got introduced to Atsuko, I clearly didn’t understand energy work either, but I was open to the concept. There’s no way I can quantify the benefits I have received from our work; I can just tell you that I’m in a better place—I’m more tolerant of others, more positive on a daily basis, and generally more confident in the path I’m choosing for my life going forward. Our work together has given me balance in my life and made me confident to trust my intuition.
Atsuko has helped me tremendously through difficult times recently, and I’m grateful to say she is my healer. Whatever I’ve said above does not adequately describe the impact she has had on my life in the last several years.
~ Jeff Robinson
I met Atsuko years ago, and she quickly became a trusted counselor. She is direct – no sugarcoating! – warm and gentle. Her intuitive abilities are exceptional. The information she’s offered me has always been accurate and useful in both practical and spiritual ways. It’s deeply important to her to give each client her best.
During our most recent session, I unexpectedly found myself sharing details of a private, difficult, complicated situation that had troubled me for decades. Atsuko listened with compassion and an open perspective. By the time I left, I felt only love for the experience – something I didn’t think would happen in my lifetime. I’m very grateful for the gift of her skill.

I have received healing from Atsuko for over a dozen years. During that time, every encounter with her presence has been a balm and also a lesson. Even from a distance, I have benefitted from her energy - most recently, she helped me from over 2,000 miles away as I struggled with the debilitating effects of long-covid, particularly brain fog and fatigue. I was able to focus better, feel more energy, and make it through work that I should not have been able to do given my condition.
Over the years, we have worked on physical, mental, emotional, and even spiritual healing. With Atsuko, it is easy to grasp how interconnected those parts of us are and how important it is to leave space for exploration when doing healing work. I am very grateful to have Atsuko in my life as a healer, a guide, and a friend.

I would like to earnestly recommend the healer, Atsuko Arai.
Atsuko helped me show up when I wanted to retreat and fall back and hide. She had the incredible ability to create a safe space and tap into a part of me that needed to be revealed, released, and healed.
Words fall short when trying to describe her healing process. But one thing I know, if you are sincerely ready to see inside yourself and release your suffering and start your healing process, Atsuko is the person for you.
