"Aloha,

I have been in private practice for three years specializing in couples and individual work with adults. In addition to my work experience and education my style of working with people is informed by my own personal time in therapy and 25 years as a meditator. I combine clear listening, gentle support and fierce accountability with each client I see."

"I think of therapy as a venue where it's an honor to explore experiences with diverse people. I know that issues are challenging to live with, and I strive to allow people a safe, nurturing, supportive environment in which to explore challenges, meaning, and existence with empathy and compassion. I value seeing and exploring with people in creating their true identities, assisting people in finding their "voice" and to stand in truth. I'm always mindful that a person is not in isolation, but is part of a community with diverse perspectives, morals, and values."

"Cultivating Happiness can be a challenge, but is necessary to move your life from despair to Joy. Living with sadness, anxiety, fear, and depression are feelings that can prevent you from living a life with more Bliss and less pain. Living a life of purpose, loving the "Self" is a journey of discovery leading to an understanding of your inner processes and how they affect your Life's journey. If you truly want to "know" yourself, and heal the wounded Soul, we will illuminate unconscious behaviors which limit a life of joy. Using Dream Analysis and Depth techniques we are partners planting the seeds for happiness and joy."

"Hi! I work with children/teens as well as adult individuals. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental and helpful environment for you or your child to explore how to address challenges you may be facing. We feel better and are more balanced people/parents/ partners when we understand ourselves, our behavior, and the patterns in our lives. Sometimes looking at these patterns, and the patterns of those around us can be scary and overwhelming to do alone. My approach emphasizes insight, collaboration, emotional healing, and empowerment to help you reach your highest potential and develop a more gratifying life."

"Aloha, If you are struggling with unmourned loss, post-traumatic stress, grief, feelings of guilt, regret, depression or other difficult thoughts and emotions you would like to heal, it's time to move from trauma and grief to healing and growth. Integrating unresolved grief can have a positive impact on your personal and professional relationships resulting in a much happier life for you. You no longer have to carry the pain! I know it's possible to integrate loss and trauma responses because I have personally done it and have helped many others do it as well."

"I believe that each of us has the ability to achieve our highest potential despite whatever path life has taken us. We move forward despite the difficulties presented to us along the way. Sometimes along this path we are faced with circumstances that make it difficult to cope. There are times when childhood experiences, hurtful interactions with others or horrific events can interrupt our present day functioning to create stress in our day-to-day living. For these and many other reasons, we lose our way and find ourselves off-track from the path that could lead us to our highest and best selves."

"Sometimes life challenges can perplex or weigh heavy on us. Other times we face challenges beyond our individual capacities. Times like this may be a good idea to seek professional counseling to help balance things out. But one may not have to wait for matters to get bad, counseling can also be preventive in nature."

"Who is this person, and how did we get here? When your main relationship no longer feels like "home," you can feel very lost. You may be arguing, or you may have lost the intimacy that held the relationship together.

Sometimes a third person can help you to break the cycle that is making things so difficult."

"Initially, people may feel reluctant to seek out therapy to address their concerns. They may worry that it is a sign of weakness, and that they're the only ones dealing with issues. This is not true, the fact that you're seeking out therapy is a sign of strength and maturity. I am compassionate and laid back, which typically makes it easier for client's to engage in the therapeutic process. I strongly believe in establishing a collaborative relationship with my clients, so that we can discover your concerns, set goals, develop treatment plans, and empower you."
