Substance Use Therapists in Hawaii

I am a trauma-informed, client-centered therapist. What that means is I desire to help you recognize and understand the impact that past experiences may have on your present thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Then, we will go a step further and identify if those things are still serving you or if there are areas you’d like to change.

Do you find yourself fascinated with personal growth and self-development? Do you want to better understand yourself so you can live your truth and show up more fully? Are you interested in deepening your relationships, learning to sit with discomfort, and communicate effectively in real time? Do you have tendency to self-abandon and people-please? Are you feeling the weight of pain and loneliness during this screen-heavy tech era? If so, you've come to the right place. Therapy can help with all this and more. Let's discuss your struggles in a safe, light-hearted space, and redirect your focus so that you can write your story anew.

I am currently accepting new clients. I specialize in helping adults who have experienced trauma, especially those whose repeated exposure to abuse and/or neglect in childhood has left them with the symptoms of PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Addictions, relationship issues, and other mental health issues.

Life is the adventure. Live your myth! The journey of self-discovery is lifelong and we all need a guide or an ally along the way at some point. If you are in the midst of a crisis, feeling one coming on, or just stuck feeling sad, anxious, uninspired, frustrated, or confused then the quickest way forward is to find professional help. For the past 25 years, I have been leading people through profound experiences of transformation toward lives beyond their wildest dreams. My adventure-based and talk therapy sessions can quickly help you to achieve results through the techniques I employ in the “national best practice” I created.

Therapy can be the opportunity to explore our lives in a safe space and unpack why we feel stuck. I encourage my clients to discuss what they want to see happen in their life and work with them on developing goals. I use a combination of family structure, emotional focus and family of origin modes of therapy in my practice. Therapy for some can be a new experience and I honor that.
