The feeling that something significant isn’t quite right can be easily overshadowed by life’s daily challenges. The importance of our mental wellness often gets pushed aside as we navigate conflict and suffer alone or in silence. Like it or not, challenges and conflict are an integral part of the human experience. My passion is helping people to realize that they can operate effectively in all realms of conflicted relationships. Leading to confidence in their ability to go out and create the life that we are all meant to live, full of meaning and purpose.

We’re all doing the best we can. Our life experiences teach us how to see the world, and we develop tools to get us through certain situations. Those tools work great… until they don’t. We tend to struggle when our experiences change but our tools stay the same. My goal is to help you figure out what’s working and what’s not. Sometimes we have to review and update how we see the world. Sometimes we need to upgrade our tools and practice new skills. Whether you’re striving toward a dream or surviving a storm, therapy gives us a chance to tap into strengths and repair pukas for this stage of your journey.

Courage, dear heart, as life will present you with surprises and in time, you will manage each one with bravery. Our families can push our boundaries; our relationships can challenge us; and our careers can stretch us so thin. Negative self-thoughts can keep us in our heads and repeating old patterns can feel like a roller coaster of emotions. Past traumas can intrude our present; social injustices can break our community down; and gender and cultural inequalities can be an exhausting battle. Our self-care can plummet and suddenly we are not our first priority. However, you are leaning in today and making an investment in YOU!

Being born and raised in Hawaii and going through the public school system made me aware of the challenges we all face at various stages in our lives. Whether it is anxiety from life transitions, low self-esteem that became depression, or behavioral issues that lead to diagnoses, I'd like to help you improve your quality of life and find your true self. We will look at where the current view of yourself and others came from and how this has impacted your ability to emotionally regulate in stressful situations. Together, we will figure out the goals that you want to achieve and a guide on how to get there.

Do you want to take your athletic performance to a higher level? Then, get mentally prepared before taking on your next big game! Mental Training is NOT just another form of therapy for athletes, and if you underperform in your sport, it is not a sign of a mental disorder. When we face a challenge in sports, there is a cascade of mental and physiological reactions that can help or hurt our athletic performance. Mental Training is about identifying how you respond when the pressure is ON and training the new responses.
