With over 19+ years of experience in Hawaii Behavioral/Mental Health, I provide psychotherapy and stress mgmt coaching as a Clinical Psychologist with a subspecialty in Marriage and Family Therapy. My professional goals are to help individuals, couples, or a family, find resolve, contentment, and meaningfulness. Through evidenced based practices, I intend to provide a non-judgmental, neutral, and safe, clinical psychotherapy environment/relationship. We may have to develop a new direction and purpose or simply clarify what is. I am a therapist with sensitivity, compassion, and an awareness of cultural diversity issues.

I work with individuals, couples, and families struggling with substance abuse issues, relationship challenges, parenting difficulties, and issues of self-worth. There are often issues involving poor communication between one another within a couple or a family unit. Whether I sit with just one member of a couple or family, or several, there is often a set of beliefs that are being worked with that are found to be developed out of fear or a pattern of neglect for self or other. My clients experience an increased sense of connection to themselves and the world around them, inclusive of the activities and people they care about.

Do you ever feel misunderstood and emotionally stressed; or have you been affected by unexpected life situations (such as Covid 19)? It may be time to talk about some of these stressors in your life. Going through a pandemic and facing natural life challenges can be overwhelming to adults and adolescents. Remotely working and going to school from home has taken us to a point of limited socialization and staying in the confines of our homes to stay healthy. Changes can be difficult for anyone and the uncertainty of this pandemic can be trying and I would like to help.

As our lives constantly change, our perspectives about others, life circumstances, as well as ourselves are also changing. On some days, we might feel “on top of the world,” while on others, we might feel anxious, defeated, and/or unloved. When we hear, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” and think that it’s just too hard to do right now, know that being open to a new perspective and change, even at this very moment, is already enough.

Aloha, my name is Earl Lau and I have been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Hawaii since 2008. I work primarily with adults, via telehealth, and specialize in anxiety, stress, anger, depression, and military-related issues (deployment, PCS's, transitioning out of the military). I typically individualize my therapeutic approach based on the needs of the client. I like to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as most clients find it easier to use and apply to their busy lives. I use other treatment modalities as well depending on the problems clients want to address.

Aloha, my name is LaVon, and I want to first say great job on taking the first and necessary step to address your challenges. Therapy can provide you with the space you need to safely and openly explore your experiences of trauma, conflict, and loss. Addressing these experiences in therapy without the stigmas and fear of judgment can be useful in alleviating stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. The relationship that ensues between the client and therapist along with the client's strengths, insight, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, facilitates growth toward goal achievement.
