Psychologist · 90-min online sessions · EN / RU / JP
I'm Ivan — a psychologist in Japan. In one call I find the exact pattern behind a conflict you keep having, an avoidance you can't explain, or an anxiety that keeps returning — and we shift it at the root.

"I thought it would take years. After the 1st session I felt relief; after the 2nd, like I had reset." Alena · fitness instructor — "years of work," resolved in 2 sessions
崩し Kuzushi — balance-breaking
A structure in balance won't be pushed over by force. Move the one point — two centimeters — and the whole thing falls. In the body, in movement, and in you.
Don't force the outcome — find the exact point, apply the smallest precise touch. If the same law holds in all three, it isn't a trick.
Progress Psychology. Eight functions, ten spheres of interaction with reality. The right question surfaces the reaction you can't see alone — because you're inside it.
Cranio-integrative techniques, massage, osteopathy. Not forcing the body — listening for where it already wants to go.
Bujinkan martial arts in Chiba. Two centimeters of difference in hand position — the gap between nothing happening and everything changing.
How this differs from talk therapy or CBT: most therapy applies general techniques to you. Progress Psychology maps where exactly you're stuck — which of the 8 functions4 in which of the 10 spheres — and works that intersection. Not a toolkit. A coordinate.
"I thought my case was severe and would take years. After the first session I already felt relief. After the second, I felt like I had reset."

Think of the anime character who irritates you most.
Not dislike — irritates. The one whose scenes you can't skip, even when you want to.
That reaction isn't about them.
Something in you reacted to that character — a signal your body learned to reject long ago. They hold a piece of you. One you buried.
You are not watching anime. Anime is watching you repeat.
That flicker you just felt? This page didn't describe the method — it ran it. Finding that signal and shifting it at the root is exactly what a session does.
Three steps. No tricks — just your own reaction, observed.
診断 Free diagnostic
1,500+ anime characters mapped to 8 psychological functions and 10 life spheres. It shows you which characters mirror your reactions — and why they won't let go.
Take the free quizThe first two centimeters of clarity come in session one. From there you choose how deep we take it.
The deepest, fastest route — a root pattern taken apart at the source, body and mind together, in person.
For deep roots — trauma, decade-old loops, identity. Taken apart until it stops firing.
Find the pattern, make the shift, lock it into real life.
Everything included. Nothing upsold later.
See — and feel — the reaction that's been running you. No commitment beyond it.
Prefer to pay per session? You're welcome to — $100 each. The Shift is the same fee for four; what it adds is the structure around the work: intake, summaries, check-ins, support between sessions, the workbook, and the follow-up. Same cost — more holding.
The first-session promise
After our first 90 minutes, if you can't put the exact reaction that's been repeating in your life into plain language, you don't pay. No questions, no follow‑up. The first session is, above all, diagnostic — by the end, the pattern usually has a name.
I take a small number of new clients each month, so the work stays close and unhurried.
A free 12-question workbook — surfaces the pattern and points to the sphere it lives in.

This is not for everyone. If you want someone to fix you while you sit back, this won't work — I guide, you do the seeing and the shifting. If you have a clinical diagnosis, please see a doctor first. I'm a psychologist-practitioner, not a psychiatrist.
仁守多 · humanity · protect · much — my Japanese name, given to me here
I moved to Japan 9 years ago with no backup plan. I've spent my life learning martial arts, gentle manual therapy, and psychology.
My sensei says 「見せるな、感じさせろ」 — "Don't show — make them feel." That's how I run sessions.
I have a wife and two kids. I train every week with my teacher in Chiba, write a book about his teachings, and map anime characters to psychology at animeprogress.com.
