I strive to provide comprehensive psychotherapy services to Maui and surrounding neighbor islands. I am a highly trained Marriage and Family Therapist who is goal oriented, flexible, responsive, and empathetic. I use proven, science-based best practices, incorporated with solution-focused, positive psychology methods to identify, highlight, and build upon the strengths my clients already inherently possess in order to address their needs, goals and desires. I am honored to treat all people regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, or sexual orientation. I offer individual, couples, family therapy, and combinations thereof.
Life and relationships can be quite challenging at times. Therapy can help you navigate through some of these challenges by providing a safe, nurturing space to explore solutions. I emphasize strengths that my clients already have, and enhance them with therapeutic techniques that are designed to help relieve a variety of life's difficulties.
You may be feeling apprehensive about asking for help. That's natural. But the first step in healing is reaching out. We are here to help you identify, strengthen, and implement the tools you need to reach your goals and enrich your life. You don't have to go through it alone.
