About myKokoro

Tools designed by mental health professionals, for mental health professionals

The Birth of myKokoro: Tools Born from Experience

The inspiration for myKokoro's suite of counseling tools came from Visualize Change's founder's own journey as a mental health professional. Throughout her counseling career, she recognized a universal challenge: maintaining appropriate self-care while providing the highest quality care to clients.

This realization led to the development of myKokoro's comprehensive digital platform—tools designed to support both mental health professionals and their clients. The suite addresses real-world challenges faced in therapeutic practice while promoting sustainable self-care, professional excellence, and positive outcomes for all involved in the healing process.

Collaborative Development & Professional Input

The development of myKokoro's tools isn't done in isolation. The team consists of a diverse network of mental health professionals—including therapists with varying experience levels and therapeutic modalities—who serve as beta testers and provide ongoing feedback. This collaborative approach ensures that the tools meet real-world needs across different practice settings and client populations.

The platform continues to evolve based on user feedback and professional input, with new features and improvements regularly implemented based on real-world testing and community suggestions.

Our Mission

To empower mental health professionals with intuitive, reliable, and comprehensive digital tools that enhance their practice and support their clients' journey toward healing and growth. We believe that by supporting the helpers, we contribute to a healthier, more resilient world.

"Mental health professionals dedicate their lives to helping others heal and grow. myKokoro exists to ensure they have the tools they need to do that work sustainably, effectively, and with the self-care they deserve."
