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.

Hi, I’m Simone. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 9 years of experience, I help people who feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them understand what’s going on beneath the surface and learn healthier ways to cope. I have supported clients navigating Anxiety, Depression, Low Self-Esteem, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and a range of trauma-related concerns. Together, we will focus on building insight, practical skills, and the confidence needed to create more fulfilling and connected lives.

With the proper support and guidance, therapy helps you cultivate your strengths, regain control, learn ways to overcome challenges, enrich your life, and take steps toward a more fulfilling future. I can help you identify patterns in your life so that you can develop a clearer understanding of your life experiences and create more positive relationships and productive behavior change. I take an active and empathetic approach to psychotherapy by establishing mutually agreed upon therapeutic goals with my clients and providing a comfortable space to explore, discuss, and be heard.

My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, life transitions, disordered eating, and interpersonal and relationship difficulties. My therapy style combines psychodynamic, CBT and DBT therapies based on the specific needs of each client.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're simply ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
