We all are shaped by the families we grew up in, events we experienced, the relationships in our lives and our cultural context. It impacts how we view ourselves and the world around us. It determines how we respond to people and situations. There are times in life, when we feel overwhelmed and stuck in old patterns. If you struggle with anxieties, depression, life challenges, and transitions, therapy can open new doors. I view therapy as a collaboration - walking together for a stretch to resolve issues or conflicts. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

Aloha, and thank you for taking a look at my profile. Feeling stuck? Not sure what narrative about you or this life you should focus on?

Are you feeling disconnected from your body, exhausted by repeating old patterns, or stuck in a state of chronic burnout?
You might be navigating a major life transition, feeling creatively blocked, or searching for a deeper sense of grounding and purpose. When we live primarily in our minds, stress and unresolved experiences settle into the body, leaving us feeling emotionally drained or estranged from our own vital energy. You don't have to navigate this terrain alone.

Many people I work with are navigating patterns that feel familiar yet no longer serving—These patterns may be rooted in past trauma, early attachment experiences, or long-held core beliefs. You may be navigating relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, and feeling called toward greater clarity, authenticity, and connection. I work with individuals who sense there is more available to them and are ready to dive in deeper and be open to growth, change and transformation.

I work with adults drawn to deeper self-understanding and a more embodied way of living. Together, we explore the patterns that shape relationships, intimacy, and self-worth, which may show up as anxiety, shame and self-judgment, codependency, or blurred boundaries. These patterns often began as ways to survive, yet can linger and block connection, peace, freedom, and joy. In our work, we slow down, listen inward, and get curious about what is ready to shift. This can open the way to greater presence, self-compassion, and self-trust, along with a deeper sense of belonging in relationships and in the world.

When painful thoughts and emotions arise, they can make us feel paralyzed and helpless. We think about a bad experience and feel the same agony again! We worry about the future and feel anxious about imaginary events! We want to get rid of those feelings and thoughts, but it's like trying to plug a high pressure leak and the water finds the weakest spot to burst out again! What else can we do? We can accept feelings with compassion because they show us what we find most important. We can observe thoughts and CHOOSE the ones to act on. We can increase our mental flexibility, so we are not trapped in misery inside our own minds.

What is psychotherapy, and why would you want to receive it? For me, psychotherapy is communication. It is a means of reflecting you back to yourself in a way that is instructive, enlightening, and healing. If you are experiencing low self-esteem, depression, thoughts of suicide, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, or fearfulness about the future, you could benefit from psychotherapy.

I support individuals and families navigating trauma, challenging relationships, life transitions, and emotional difficulties. Many clients come to therapy feeling disconnected from themselves, others, or their sense of safety. I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed space to understand experiences, recognize patterns, strengthen relationships, and develop healthier ways of coping. Rather than asking, “What’s wrong with you?” we explore, “What happened to you?” and “What do you need to move forward?”

Starting therapy can feel like a big step — especially when culture, family expectations, or things you were taught growing up have shaped how you think about mental health. Here, you don't have to leave any part of yourself at the door. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, truly heard, and seen for who you are.
If you're carrying the weight of balancing cultural identity, family values, and your own sense of self, you're not alone — and you don't have to explain that weight from scratch.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
