Aloha! Making a decision to attend a counseling session can be very scary! However, counseling can provide an opportunity to stop, reflect, heal, and gain hope in a safe and professional atmosphere. My task as a therapist is to work along side of you to help guide you toward answers you may seek. I believe that all difficulties contain a small seed of opportunity within them and I can support you in clarifying yours while resolving obstacles that may get in the way.

Do you find yourself stuck in your life- jobs, relationships, or general unhappiness in the way your life is going? Let me help you move forward in life. I was in a similar situation when I was 30 – in an unfulfilling and stressful job. I went back to school, earned my B.A, and earned my M.Ed in counseling & guidance, and Ph.D. in Educational Psychology. It can be confusing to figure out which direction to take in life, or how to overcome life’s obstacles. Let’s work together to understand and resolve your struggles and help you to follow the path you choose to follow.

Would you like to take an integrative approach to therapy? Intervention strategies with my clients involve closely examining emotional and cultural issues associated with psychological and physical health. I was born and raised on Oahu, and am aware of the unique pressures local residents face as they try to maintain a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle. I enjoy helping clients find effective coping strategies that could improve their health, wellness, spirituality, personal relationships, and overall daily functioning. I also welcome spiritual-theological dialoguing to foster opportunities for exploration, reconciliation, and healing.

Oftentimes, people are uncomfortable taking the first step to speak to a stranger about personal issues. However, once coming in for therapy, many people find it comforting to have a safe place to speak freely...with a therapist who is there to listen to them and guide them through life's difficulties. I practice with a non-judgmental approach to help my clients to reach their therapeutic goals. It is important that my clients feel comfortable with me in order for them to openly discuss the deeper issues affecting their lives.

“Give yourself the same care and attention that you give others and watch yourself bloom.” – The Sprouting Sunflower We often focus our energies on taking care of others and everything around us that we forget to take care of ourselves. We may then become overwhelmed, stressed, and feel many mixed emotions causing us to remain stuck in our patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviors. Feeling stuck may significantly impact our relationship with others and with ourselves that leads to unhealthy ways of coping and feeling that we’re juggling so much.

People come for therapy to seek help for many different reasons. Some are dealing with issues at work or school. Others are struggling with complicated relationships with romantic partners, spouses, or family members and hope to enhance these relationships.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
