Personal Profile
Thanks very much for visiting my website! My name is Kenji Kuramitsu (he/him) and I currently work in health care in my family's hometown of Chicago. Below is a professional bio:
Licensed as a clinical social worker in Illinois, I hold graduate degrees from the University of Chicago’s School of Social Service Administration (AM) and McCormick Theological Seminary (M.Div), where I have served as an Adjunct Professor in Ministry and Pastoral Care. My Bachelor studies were in Social Work and Spanish at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I have completed a Fellowship and Certificate in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (in progress!) with the Chicago Center of Psychoanalysis and am board certified as a Group Psychotherapist (CGP).
In my clinical and administrative work, I strive to bring curiosity, humor, and warmth, calling upon past experiences in health care chaplaincy and antiracism training and organizing. I have experience in nonprofit board service working with organizations in faith-based, LGBTQ, and Japanese American historical memory work.
I am interested in continuing to deepen opportunities for clinical practice as well as thoughtful consulting with progressive institutions working to further reparative and antiracist values.
