About Us

ShisaCare Mission Statement:

To provide quality therapy services to families living in Japan.

ShisaCare was founded to meet the previously unmet need for therapy services that accept U.S. insurance in Okinawa. Living overseas can be challenging—especially when a family member has developmental, communication, or emotional needs. Our mission is to support families through these challenges by offering compassionate, high-quality therapy services. We are committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of our clients as they navigate life in a new country.

ShisaCare Clinic offers both online and in-person services across Japan, including speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, counseling, and psychological support.

ShisaCare was established in Okinawa in 2021 by founder and speech-language pathologist Marisa. Initially launched with speech services, the clinic quickly expanded thanks to the support and expertise of military spouses who helped develop additional specialties and open new locations in Yokosuka, Iwakuni, and Yokota.

We are in-network with most major U.S. insurance providers that offer coverage in Japan, making our services accessible and affordable to military and civilian families stationed abroad.
