Aloha and welcome to my online practice, a warm and safe space for teens and adults seeking support. With 15 years of experience as a licensed psychologist in Hawai'i and Montana, I am here to help you navigate life's challenges from the comfort of your own home. Together, we will work through your struggles and build meaningful paths toward healing and personal growth.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, direct, and firmly rooted in meeting you exactly where you are. I combine the deep self-awareness of psychodynamic therapy with the practical tools of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused strategies. In our sessions, you can expect an authentic, genuine connection where we don't just talk about problems, but actively build real-world solutions. Whether you are an adult navigating a life transition or a teenager facing modern pressures, I tailor these frameworks to fit your unique goals and identity.
During your first session, you will enter a grounded, safe, and supportive space where you can freely share your story at your own pace. We will explore what brings you to therapy, what you hope to change or heal, and begin identifying your initial goals for our work together. It is also an opportunity for us to connect genuinely, see how we fit as a team, and lay the foundation for your therapeutic journey.
