Understanding Moral Harassment: A Public Seminar
Kisaragi Counseling Room is set to host a public seminar titled "Understanding Moral Harassment" on December 7, 2025, from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM (Tokyo time). This online event aims to shed light on the often-misunderstood issue of moral harassment, a form of emotional abuse similar to bullying, domestic violence, and child abuse.
Founded in February 2020, Kisaragi Counseling Room specializes in moral harassment and trauma care, providing clinical therapy through both in-person and online methods. The primary focus of this seminar is to help individuals affected by moral harassment articulate their experiences and assist their supporters in recognizing the signs of such abuse. One might ask, what is moral harassment? It is a psychological form of abuse that can be insidious and difficult to identify, often leaving victims confused and questioning whether what they endured qualifies as moral harassment. This ambiguity not only makes it hard for the victims to express their feelings but also leaves those around them uncertain about how to offer support.
During the seminar, attendees will have an opportunity to gain a clearer understanding of what moral harassment entails—both for individuals who have experienced it and for those who wish to help. The seminar is open to anyone interested, regardless of their prior knowledge on the subject.
