DECIDING TO BEGIN PSYCHOTHERAPY IS A COURAGEOUS ACT. I enjoy working with clients who, via symptoms such as depression, anxiety, sexual-orientation or career issues, eating disorders, life transitions, or relationship issues are seeking a deeper understanding of their lives and which direction they wish to take. Often the symptom is the "call" from psyche, a portal into a deeper exploration into one's life which may yield increased self-awareness and introductions to formerly unknown aspects of one's own being. I feel privileged to be called upon to accompany individuals on this journey. At this time,

Born and raised in the islands, I am blessed to be a part of our unique island culture and our Spirit of Aloha. Although I have travelled, Hawaii is my home. Yet even in paradise, we experience life's many challenges and everyday stressors. Navigating adulthood is a process of trial and error. I've been fortunate enough to have trustworthy friends and mentors to help guide me along the path that they have already travelled, and would like to offer the same assistance to others. Becoming a parent myself, I now see the cycle of life and growth that much more clearly.

I believe that the core of successful psychotherapy lies in creating a safe place for you to talk about things that are truly important in your life. I was born and raised in Hawaii and feel that I'm able to identify with the concerns and experiences you may have in our multi-cultural environment. In addition to my doctorate in psychology, I have advanced degrees in Education and Theological Studies. I value and respect the strength that your own cultural and religious/spiritual values and faith can provide.

Regardless of age, social status, or family of origin, the way we feel about ourselves affects the way we see the world, experience our lives, and manage our relationships. Having local roots but being born and raised in "the big city" on the mainland, I know from experience what it's like growing up with a variety of obstacles and needing to navigate the sometimes fearsome and foreboding world. These experiences have fueled my present day commitment to help others stand up, have hope, and see possibilities.

Life takes us for turns we don't expect and sometimes we’re able to get through them, but in other times, we can become stuck. We may feel overwhelmed at work, in our marriage, or in other relationships. Perhaps, there are difficulties with a teenager at home or maybe there are feelings of sadness or anxiousness. When life brings us to this point, reaching out for help is a courageous first step toward change. Entering therapy can provide clarity to the confusion and is a safe place to explore alternative avenues toward an improved quality of life.
