Jungian Therapists in Kailua, HI
I approach therapy from a Jungian perspective, holding space for both conscious and unconscious material.
Welcome! Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply feel stuck, I’m here to support you on your journey toward an empowered & fulfilling life. Our bodies and nervous systems hold onto a range of personal, cultural, and generational experiences—joys, fears, traumas, and learned patterns. These experiences shape how we engage with the world—how we relate, react, and participate in life. Beneath these layers and material, there’s a place of connection and wholeness waiting to be rediscovered, offering the potential to break free from unwanted patterns.

Therapy offers the chance to become more present with ourselves. Together we contemplate the human journey. We can get familiar with our innate mindfulness and compassion. On my journey I've realized that well being can be learned; achieved with a level of skillfulness, a window of tolerance. Getting triggered helps us learn. I help individuals and couples study their nervous systems and their "parts" -- a complex legacy of neurobiological attachment wiring. With a manner that is warm, relatable, and active yet non-invasive, I help my clients find meaning, hope, and the freedom to become who they were meant to be.

I am a friendly, real, and comfortable person to talk with. Therapy can feel daunting and embarrassing, especially at first, so it's important that you feel comfortable when you are talking about what's bothering you.

I will gently guide you through the process of uncovering your needs and wants in a way that doesn't feel threatening or invasive and help you get those in your life.

Individuals come to me for a trauma-focused, body-centered (somatic therapy), or Jungian depth approach to psychotherapy, especially when they’re navigating complex trauma. Many feel stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, or lost and seek a therapist with both clinical expertise and personal experience. Facing these deeply distressing experiences alone can be isolating and helpless. Whether you're new to therapy or have had past experiences that felt too clinical, you may find yourself searching for something more meaningful and with lasting impact.

Young adults seek therapy with me because they are feeling emotionally or physically drained or unmotivated or anxious, worried, and panicked. Many come to therapy for support with grief related to loss, change, or transition. I help those who feel stuck or like they are not living up to hopes or expectations. People also come for trauma resolution and stress management, looking to gain insight into their past to make changes for the future. I help those who feel disconnected from themselves and are looking to live a more symbolic and meaningful life through personal growth, creativity, and authenticity.

Under any weather conditions, where rough seas and rugged shores collide, there stands a lighthouse signaling: “This way home; this way to safety.” (Monson) Under any life conditions, when our body, heart, mind, or spirit may collide with harsh reality, there comes a guiding signal from our inner lighthouse. Without such guidance, we may find ourselves lost, alone, hurt, discouraged, and ultimately dis-empowered in any aspect of our lives. Compassionate, collaborative therapy allows us to recognize and rely on our inner guidance as one of the key turning points towards self-empowerment, support, healing, success, and happiness.

Jungian Therapists
How does Jungian therapy work?
Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.
How long does Jungian therapy last?
Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.
Is Jungian therapy effective?
According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.
Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?
Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
