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

If you’re here, you’re probably hoping to feel better—fast. That’s human.

I was born in Japan, grew up in the U.S., and have lived in both Hawaii and New York. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in both states, with a background in leading nationally recognized mental health programs and training over 200 therapists. I also bring a business perspective, which helps me focus on practical, real-world solutions.

From both professional and personal experience, I understand how even strong, capable people can feel overwhelmed when life throws a curveball.

Sometimes change takes time, but we can begin right away by making sense of what’s going on and finding realistic ways to move forward.

I take a practical, steady approach, backed by over 25 years of experience in mental health.

I see therapy as a collaborative process. Together, we identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop healthier coping strategies, and build on your existing strengths to foster lasting change. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, I aim to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and capable of creating the life you want.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Hawaii

Searching for therapists in Hawaii starts with finding someone whose training and focus match what you want support with. Needs and available therapists can vary across urban and rural parts of the state, so it helps to look beyond location alone. You may want care for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care.

Your search may look different in Honolulu, Hilo, Kahului, or other communities across the islands. Some people prefer in-person therapy close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling flexibility. To narrow your options, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, their appointment availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand their communication style, session structure, and experience before you book.

The cost of therapy in Hawaii varies, and care can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who match your needs, verify your insurance, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
