Aloha. If you are here, you’re likely struggling with something in your life, a relationship, overwhelming stress or anxiety, depression, trauma, or other unresolved issues from your past. Do you find yourself constantly tense and worried, short tempered, or overthinking everything? Are your challenges impacting your performance at work, your relationships, or the way you parent? Would you like to be better able to manage your emotions and thoughts and have more awareness and control over your actions and responses? Or maybe you are curious about therapy and want to know if it can help you find more joy, love and peace in your life.

Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest decisions to make for yourself. Maybe you are used to putting everyone else's need before your own. I'm glad that you have made it this far. Maybe you are struggling with over thinking, constant worry, or feel overwhelmed and would like to feel more at peace. Maybe you feel shut down and detached from your own emotions and would like to feel more present. I have been working in the Behavioral Health field for over 20 years and have seen the healing benefits of therapy and encourage you to take that first step in showing up for yourself.

I believe that where we find inspiration, we find our deepest joy, connection, and love. My hope is that through caring therapeutic support and innovative approaches, I can help others enjoy their best lives.

Counseling through telehealth during the pandemic has provided a surprisingly convenient, personal, & confidential way to do therapy!
