My career began in 1997 as an AmeriCorps member working in harm reduction during the peak of new HIV infections. Since then, I've held many roles as a proud social worker. I have been a therapist for 18 years, with extensive training & experience in harm reduction therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD. I have lived experience with mental health challenges and treatment

I have worked and lived in:

• Charlotte, NC
• San Francisco
• Michigan
• Oahu, Hawaii

My communication style is nonjudgmental, authentic, and grounded in honesty, empathy, and respect. I believe that meaningful therapeutic work happens when clients feel safe enough to be themselves and know they will be met with understanding rather than criticism. My goal is to create a space where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while feeling genuinely supported throughout the process.

I take a holistic approach to therapy and believe it is important to understand the whole person, not just the challenges that bring them to treatment. Together, we may explore areas such as work-life balance, childhood experiences, relationships, physical health and well-being, cultural influences, personal values, and future goals. By considering the many factors that shape your life, we can develop a deeper understanding of your experiences and create a path toward meaningful, lasting growth.

I strive to balance compassion with honesty, offering both support and thoughtful feedback when appropriate. My goal is to help you gain insight, strengthen self-awareness, and make choices that align with the life you want to create.

I am a board certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner with 3 years of independent practice and over a decade in the healthcare field. I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, and sleep disorders.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist originally trained in NYC at St. John’s University. My main area of focus is on working with adults seeking burnout recovery (both individual and group therapy offerings; see website mirnamejiaphd.com for group therapy description).

Additional specialties include the treatment of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I'm also particularly interested in the treatment of chronic health conditions, including chronic pain and insomnia, including how emotional functioning impacts overall physical well-being.

Please note that I work with clients 18+ years of age.

Do you ever feel like you’re going through the motions or making choices that don’t quite reflect who you want to be? Maybe you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in familiar patterns, or disconnected from the people and parts of life that matter most.

Therapy can be a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and create meaningful change. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way, build practical coping strategies, and strengthen the tools you already have. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and supportive, with a focus on making therapy both emotionally safe and practically useful in daily life.

Clinically trained while integrating spirit, intuition and the work of visionaries at the growing edge of wisdom. I offer lovingly honest support to individuals and couples motivated to create change in their lives. Clients that work with me often gain insights, feel more connected to themselves and others and increase their emotional well being.

I have lived in Hawaii for 12 years now and am originally from New York State. My dad lived on Kauai my whole life so my connections and roots are here. In my personal time, I love to take care of animals, eat healthy, and enjoy the island. I believe that mental health is a whole body and system approach. I have worked with children and adolescents my entire career. My presence has been strong in the school system so I know how to navigate that culture and those rules as well.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with the whole system -- the relationships -- both INTRApersonal and INTERpersonal relationships. I support individuals with their own internal landscape as well as their way of connecting and relating with others. I was trained as a Deaf Educator and can support people with various learning styles and needs. I also work with mindfulness, yoga, breathwork, and Reiki to bring in a holistic approach to mental health.

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.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over five years of experience. I truly enjoy working with children, teens, and young adults. I believe that prioritizing your mental health is essential to building a strong successful, and fulfilling life. Life can be overwhelming at times, and my goal is to support you in navigating its challenges with confidence and clarity. I would love to walk alongside you in that process.

If you are feeling stuck in a cycle of trauma, managing a chronic health crisis, or navigating a major life transition, you do not have to carry it alone.

I am a doctoral-level psychologist with over 10 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and military families find clarity and resilience during their most overwhelming seasons. My practice is grounded in a calm, seasoned approach developed across diverse settings, from intensive inpatient units to delicate palliative care.

I bring deep expertise to supporting those facing the heavy overlap of physical health conditions and psychological trauma, as well as veterans and military families processing service-related experiences, deployment stress, and structural transitions. I also specialize in helping individuals navigate identity, systemic challenges, and family dynamics related to acculturation and immigrant stress across the lifespan, while providing a steady, expert space during major life transitions like grief, medical diagnoses, or existential shifts.

In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to untangle your experiences at a pace that feels safe for you. Together, we will build actionable strategies to move you out of survival mode and toward genuine healing.

Welcome, and 初めまして。 I offer telehealth therapy for residents of Hawaii and New York and accepting new patients.
