Aloha! I specialize in the treatment of substance abuse and addictions of all kinds, mental health issues, including anxiety, depression and life transitions, and trauma treatment with somatic healing and Attachment Focused EMDR. If you are struggling with a substance abuse issue and are looking to work with a counselor one-on-one who deeply understands the struggles of addiction and the triumphs of recovery, we may be a good fit. I have been in long term recovery myself for many years and my combined training in psychotherapy and my personal experience place me in a unique position to be of service. With a primary focus on substance abuse and mental health, I am also a trauma specialist, mindfulness meditation instructor, shamanic healer, and reiki master. I weave the profound understandings and application of western psychology with the healing wisdom of the east and indigenous cultures to create a unique and individualized approach to psychotherapy. As a wounded healer who has recovered from the depths of suffering and despair of substance addiction, anxiety and the unlived life, I am in a position were empathy and understanding come natural. For more information about myself and the work I do please visit my website or call for a free consultation.

Experiencing painful feelings or distress in a relationship, work, in life, perhaps along with low mood or too much tension? I am interested in your story. It is natural to feel overwhelmed at times and it is not a sign of weak character to seek help. In a safe environment, as we explore the internal conflicts and patterns that get in the way of living fully, healing and change can result. Insight can also emerge from actions taken in life - what it is that you do and how you do it - and this is also explored in therapy. While my focus is primarily on the present, understanding the influence of past experiences is also important. A variety of perspectives inform my approach that is primarily psychoanalytic. Integrative Medicine interests me; currently I am assistant clinical professor at University of Hawaii John A. Burns School of Medicine. Central to my work is the celebration of the power and resilience of the human spirit, its creativity, as we build on your strengths. Let's talk about how I can be of help. If responding by email, please leave a phone number where I can reach you. Mahalo.

Depression, anxiety, trauma, and other negative influences can foster doubt and isolation. Fears usurp our natural capacity for joy. Life transitions are challenging and affect entire families. Don't go it alone. Psychotherapy can help evoke wholeness and health, renew relationships and perspective. Be the person you were born to be. Know yourself and make an informed change. Through the use of a family systems approach to psychotherapy, personal and relational insights are inspired for well-rounded perspective and healthy interactions. Emphasis is given to balance between spirit, mind, and body.

Aloha, let’s talk story! I’ve been working with our keiki, adolescents, adults and couples for 18 years as a cultural practitioner, educator and counseling therapist. Even in times of severe stress or extreme trauma and loss, we have the capacity to connect to our strengths, resilience and make change happen. My job is to be by your side, create a supportive space, and co-create treatments while you explore taking those small steps or giant leaps towards change and healing. I value being a non judgmental, culturally sensitive, trusted person you can talk to freely. I specialize in working with teens, couples, and adults. Together we will develop a healing treatment plan that begins with clarifying goals and concludes with the integration of skills that will continue to serve you throughout life's challenges, old and new. Every painful problem is different and everyone heals in different ways. Over the last 2 decades I have worked in different settings: the Hawai'i school system, private practice, Na Keiki o Emalia (a grief support organization) and Mauna Medics (a healing hui). I welcome working with you towards creating more ease, greater balance and freedom in your life.
