I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist offering evidence-based trauma therapies including Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy and Trauma Focused CBT. I developed my specialty in treating emotional trauma working with PTSD field experts at the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs. I offer gold-standard PTSD interventions endorsed by the National Center for PTSD and the American Psychological Association. I Am Accepting New Patients (808) 731-1924 Serving: Oahu, Maui, Kauai and Big Island (Hawaii)
In addition to my trauma work, I practice CBT driven treatments for problems with mood (e.g., Anxiety, Depression, Irritability & Anger). I consider my work in the field of trauma the foundation of my practice. I attribute this for my success in helping patients cope with struggles ranging from daily stressors to major mood disorders.
I value evidence based therapies that are demonstrated to improve mental health. Many of my patients are active duty, veteran and federally employed (civilian). I Do Not Accept Insurance.
