Life has its difficult moments. Do you ever feel like you are suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction, or substance abuse and would like to find a lasting solution? Do you need someone to talk to in a safe space? Whether it be life changes like moving or a death of a loved one, switching jobs or recurring relationship issues, change can be tough (even if it a positive one).

Finding meaning through difficulty is something all of us strive to do, and it can be hard when life throws us curveball after curveball. But, that's where therapy can help. If you're looking for a non-judgmental space to process trauma, anxiety, grief, among other issues and experiences, therapy may not only be a place to examine the obstacles, but also to find the meaning behind them. "Zooming out" is something I help clients do in order to avoid getting lost in the here-and-now obstacles. Instead, let's look at recurring patterns and find out the meaning behind those patterns.

I was surprised to discover that Artificial Intelligence can reflect thoughts and feelings better than anyone I have ever worked with. It can also guide people through their inner landscape like an Internal Family Systems therapist. It is now possible to have an on-call IFS partner who is available 24/7 for free. I want to show you how to get the support you need to deal with life challenges. I do not charge for this service or for the groups I facilitate.

I’ve witnessed the therapeutic process help many people from all walks of life. When I say “help”, I mean the small changes that make the difference between feeling depressed, tired, lonely, and numb to feeling re-connected to yourself, your purpose, your sense of hope, and the people you love. The changes that lead you from worrying, obsessing, and “freaking out” everyday to every other day or week or month instead (your nervous system needs a break!) and gradually to a place of peace. The emotional, spiritual, and mental changes that will get you through the deep, difficult, and challenging periods of your life.

We all get stuck sometimes--and it's important to find the right therapist to help you get moving again. I do offer: understanding, knowledge, options for change. I don't offer: judgement, pessimism, excuses.

How can I find a therapist in Honolulu?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

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.

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.

What type of therapist is right for me?

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.

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 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.

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.
