I believe that even the most challenging and difficult experiences can be used as catalysts for creating positive change and growth. Providing solution focused support with a strengths-based practice I strive to educate and create ownership around ability for growth with my clients. I focus on building comfort with discomfort, gaining skills and obtaining resilience to manage emotions and stress. My treatment approach is client centered with specific intent to identify client’s strengths and tailor treatment to fit their needs, background and personality.

Aloha! Sometimes we all need some assistance with difficult life transitions or changes. Trying therapy can provide a place to discuss your needs and hopes for a healthier future. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with many concerns such as depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I believe that the therapist and client relationship is the most important aspect of positive outcome and I invite people to come in and discuss their concerns.

Aloha, I began my journey as a psychotherapist in 2006 and have worked in several settings in California and on Kauai including with severely mentally ill adults in residential treatment, at-risk adolescents in group homes, in a small Jungian analytical practice, and with children and families as an intensive in-home therapist. As a psychotherapist, I aid in lessening the burdens brought forth through talk therapy and working to understand the roots of issues presented. I enjoy listening with the goal of understanding each individual that comes to see me for therapy, and being an ally in life to those who are suffering.

Would you like your teen or child to learn how to manage difficult feelings or change? Many youth are dealing with depression, stress, and anxiety. I specialize in teaching fun tools to manage negative thoughts/feelings in order to feel more empowered and confident in life! These self awareness skills help your child to enjoy more healthy relationships with family and their peers. Your child will learn how to apply a positive growth mindset perspective that they may use the rest of their lives. I enjoy collaborating with parents and also have vast experience working with adults (and their inner child) to reach their goals too!

Together, we can work through issues that lead to symptoms of depression, anxiety, traumatic stress, and social isolation. Our work together will help you develop the insight and tools to find relief and reach your goals.

It is an honor to support humans on their journey to wellness. As a psycho-spiritual therapist, I weave in elements of the greater mystery we're all part of, bringing the macro-cosm into our personal experience. My work with clients is deep soul work, aligning them with the right resources, at the right time, for what is ready to heal now. I help clients identify patterns that keep them stuck and blocked from living the life they desire. Using energy psychology techniques like Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping), I guide the release of stagnant energy that no longer serves them. All the while the client's soul leads the healing.

Few things in life are as hard as asking for help. This is especially true if you aren't quite sure what to ask for or how to ask. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that the problems we face are influenced not only by what is happening with us, but also within our relationships with others. Our connections and relationships are important to us and our individual mental and emotional health. So whether I am working with just one person, a couple, or a family, it is not about taking sides, villainizing, victimizing, or blaming. It is about healing, empowering, and recovery.

Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts, distressing memories, and anxiety? EMDR therapy helps to effectively process trauma and allows you to live you life with more ease and regulation. I work with adults and teens to relieve symptoms of PTSD, OCD, addiction, and insomnia. If you have tried talk therapy but still struggle, I welcome you to try EMDR. I utilize ego-state parts work and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy as needed. Throughout the healing process, you will notice increased self-trust and a natural release of old coping strategies. You deserve to live life fully, free from the distraction and pain of old wounds.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
