About

I am a professional counselor licensed in Hawaii with over 10 years of experience working as a licensed counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also have experience working with military families and deployment.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines the Gottman method with ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), Motivational Interviewing , and person centered counseling.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
