Great to meet you!

Greetings and Aloha.

Welcome to my professional profile! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, trauma, and other mental health challenges.

My approach to therapy

CBT: Using cognitive reframing to challenge negative thoughts and replace them with more positive or realistic perspectives.

Trauma-focused: Addressing the impact of traumatic experiences on clients' mental and emotional well-being.

Humanistic: Emphasizing empathy, validation, and creating a therapeutic relationship based on trust and understanding.

Humor: Using humor as a tool to reduce stress, build rapport, and foster a positive therapeutic atmosphere.

What you can expect from me

  • Catharsis: A release of strong emotions, often through talking about them.
  • Relief: A sense of easing or lightness after discussing difficult topics.
  • Validated: Feeling understood and acknowledged for their experiences.
  • Heard: Feeling like their voice and perspective are valued.
  • Supported: Knowing they have someone to rely on and turn to.
  • Inspired: Feeling motivated or hopeful about their future.
