Behavioral Issues Therapists in Waipahu, HI

Today is the day to make the decision to get better! Aloha, if you or someone that you love is experiencing difficulty functioning due to symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief, loss, the effects of trauma, binge and purge cycles, body image distortions, suicidal thinking, obsessions, or other psychological difficulties that impede the ability to live a healthy and productive life, then I may be able to help you. My name is Simone Overman-Starkman, I am a licensed clinical psychologist welcoming new patients and looking forward to scheduling an appointment with you or your loved one.

Initially, people may feel reluctant to seek out therapy to address their concerns. They may worry that it is a sign of weakness, and that they're the only ones dealing with issues. This is not true, the fact that you're seeking out therapy is a sign of strength and maturity. I am compassionate and laid back, which typically makes it easier for client's to engage in the therapeutic process. I strongly believe in establishing a collaborative relationship with my clients, so that we can discover your concerns, set goals, develop treatment plans, and empower you.

Are you looking for a therapist with proven experience, ability and success to understand, motivate and inspire you to cultivate your natural ability to resolve your life-hurdles and live life to the fullest? If you are, I can help.

Changes, struggles, and just-being-stuck happens. You do not have to go it alone. A listener and a suggester of new ways of seeing or doing things might help. Together we can strive to help you, your family, or your children to a place of hope, well-being, and growth. I work with children, adolescents, young adults, mid-life adults and seniors. I became a therapist through working with divorcing families and children of divorce. Divorce is a hard transition for children and parents. A therapist can help with the sadness, discomfort, and difference in challenging times.

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.

I work with individuals, couples, and families struggling with substance abuse issues, relationship challenges, parenting difficulties, and issues of self-worth. There are often issues involving poor communication between one another within a couple or a family unit. Whether I sit with just one member of a couple or family, or several, there is often a set of beliefs that are being worked with that are found to be developed out of fear or a pattern of neglect for self or other. My clients experience an increased sense of connection to themselves and the world around them, inclusive of the activities and people they care about.

Aloha, my name is LaVon, and I want to first say great job on taking the first and necessary step to address your challenges. Therapy can provide you with the space you need to safely and openly explore your experiences of trauma, conflict, and loss. Addressing these experiences in therapy without the stigmas and fear of judgment can be useful in alleviating stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. The relationship that ensues between the client and therapist along with the client's strengths, insight, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, facilitates growth toward goal achievement.
