Psychologist Author Presenter Consultant

Over Psychologist Author Presenter Consultant

Douglas Ota is a child psychologist, consultant, presenter, and author. His father descends from Japanese roots, while his mother traces her ancestry to England. Both their union and separation taught Ota how to grow up between worlds. He has made a career out of wondering where he – and others – belong. Ota migrated east to study Religion at Princeton University, then further east to study Clinical Child Psychology at the University of Leiden in The Netherlands, going on to become a registered child psychologist with the Dutch Psychological Association. For many years, he was a High School counselor at the American School of The Hague. He now works in private practice. Half of Ota’s professional activities are devoted to counseling with children and adolescents, individuals, couples, and families. The other half is devoted to consulting with international schools and organizations on how to build programs to address the challenges and opportunities of mobility. He is the author of the recently published book Safe Passage: What Mobility Does to People and What International Schools Should Do About It, already hailed as a “classic in the TCK literature.”
