Clients that work with me often gain insights, feel more connected to themselves and others and increase their emotional well being.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.

Born and raised in Hawai`i I carry a lens that acknowledges the challenges we face, often specific to holding and honoring our place here in Hawai`i. As a kanaka, wahine, and makua I embrace the various roles we all play in our lives. Many of us carry the weight of our `ohana and are seeking support from someone "who gets it." With 17 years counseling experience here in Hawai`i and on the continent, I have worked across our communities in non-profit, government/judicial, and education (both DOE and university level). I have supported a variety of age groups including teens, adults, and our kupuna. I carry deep gratitude and aloha for our community people who make up our patchwork quilt here in Hawai`i.
