Aetna Therapists in Honolulu, HI
My particular interest and expertise is in challenges faced by couples: cultural differences, issues of step-families, aftermath of infidelity, fertility issues, serious illness or loss in the family, low-sex and no-sex couples, raising adolescents - and empty nest issues... Another area of work is dealing with the dissolution of the relationship - how to say good-bye with dignity, and how to mend a broken heart and renew your spirit, and your joy of life. And of course, if there are children involved, our focus would be on protecting them from the aftermath of the divorce as much as possible.

Life is a dynamic and ever moving process. As humans, we are constantly driven towards growth and potential, while simultaneously towards defending ourselves from the suffering and pain that so often affect our lives. Psychotherapy offers the possibility of enhancing awareness and understanding of oneself, ones experience of the world, and ones unique style of managing life's challenges. Through the process of effective psychotherapy people often move beyond the removal of problems or symptoms towards acceptance and awareness of self, and further towards actualization of personal potential.

The road to healing and wholeness is a personal and sacred journey. My philosophy, as both a clinical psychologist and life coach, is that the human spirit can be empowered to overcome traumatic experiences and memories that keep one from enjoying a more fulfilling life.

I believe that we all do what we know based on what we have learned, beliefs we have adopted, and/or experiences we have been through. It is my belief that once we become aware of the patterns we have created in our lives, we can then consciously decide to change situations that we are not satisfied with. In order to heal I believe it is important to empower individuals to tell their stories while feeling every emotion without judgment.

The clients I often work with deal with hesitancy about seeking out counseling for fear of not being able to form a trusting relationship with their provider. Perhaps it was a bad prior experience or reading about the horrible experiences of others, I want to show my clients that their fears are unfounded and hope is restored with me. They want to feel understood and heard. They want to regain a sense of balance and meaning in life. Clients want to feel safe and know they can manage their day-to-day lives in this challenging world.
