Aoki Clinic
Aoki Clinic is a psychiatry practice tucked into the basement level of the Aura Building in Minami-Aoyama — a quiet, low-key setup that suits the nature of the visit. The neighborhood is upscale and easy to navigate, sitting between Omotesando and Hiroo, both well-served by subway lines.
The clinic handles the full range of psychiatric care: mood disorders, anxiety, sleep issues, adjustment problems — the kind of stuff that hits expats harder than they expect. Staff have conversational English, so you won’t be completely on your own, but don’t expect a fully bilingual experience. Come prepared with vocabulary for your symptoms, and if your situation is complex, having some written notes in Japanese doesn’t hurt.
It’s a smaller clinic, which means things feel more personal and less like a conveyor belt. For expats dealing with mental health issues in Japan — where the topic is still navigated carefully — having a psychiatrist who can at least meet you partway in English makes a real difference.
Patient Feedback
Patients tend to appreciate the calm, low-pressure atmosphere — the basement location actually works in its favor, feeling private rather than clinical. The doctor takes time during consultations, which matters a lot in psychiatry. Wait times are generally reasonable for a Tokyo clinic. Some patients note the English support is functional but limited, so appointments go smoother when patients can describe symptoms clearly. Overall, the vibe is unhurried and serious without being cold.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
