Misako Yamamoto
A licensed acupuncturist, Qigong practitioner and psilocybin facilitator (Oregon)
Offering Safe & Supported Individual and Group Journeys
Her Approach is Compassionate, Intuitive, and Deeply Grounded
With ~25yrs of experience in Traditional East Asian Medicine (TEAM), she specializes in addressing emotional and spirit-centered imbalances. Her work is rooted in the classical foundations of TEAM and shaped by Daoist, Buddhist, and east Asian shamanic cosmologies, as well as Indigenous Wisdom traditions.
Misako is a Japanese-American free and playful spirit; born in Kobe, Japan and raised in Portland, Oregon speaking English & Japanese.
She is the keeper of her family’s ancestral scroll, and her father’s lineage traces back to the 11th century BCE—early roots of Samurai society. She is descended from three generations of maternal ancestors who endured the injustice of wartime incarceration in Japanese American concentration camps during World War II.
Misako's deep connection heritage allows her to draw strength and resilience from her ancestors as they continue to guide her path forward.
