I see my role as that of an assistant to the client, a wise, skilled, kind and compassionate support. I want to help you do the healing, opening and learning that you are already doing as fast and as easy as possible, with as little suffering as possible. Well being and joy is in our original blueprint, it is natural that we seek -and find- happiness, vitality, balance and health. Often we can do it on our own, but sometimes we need a little support. As humans we are meant to get support and different, more expanded perspectives from others. That's how we learn, grow and thrive. Seeking input is a sign of maturity, not weakness.

The process of trying to find a therapist can be so overwhelming. I want you to know that you don't have to rush into anything! Slow down, take your time, and don't settle for something that doesn't feel right. What works for one person may not work for another. This is about YOUR journey and what YOU need. The most important thing to me is that you feel safe and comfortable with me as a human being. So first and foremost, if something about me resonates with you, please reach out! I'm happy to talk with you about your needs, wants, ambitions, struggles, all of it. Just take one step at a time.

One simply needs to be validated, and to strengthen the emotional "muscles" that have grown weak--just as we exercise our bodies and our minds, we must exercise our emotional I truly believe we can not experience long term health unless we pay close attention to our Mind, Body and Spirit--the Emotional; our humanness. when we honor our truths, we will achieve our Authentic Self!

Change is all around us lately. Are you simply surviving and searching for ways to thrive? Sometimes we have the tools and other times we need someone to inspire, create, motivate or teach us what it takes to thrive. I have worked on Maui, Molokai, and Lanai for the past 23 years. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families searching for ways to better themselves. I have provided support for people experiencing grief/loss, parenting challenges, trauma/crisis, children with special needs, prisoner reintegration, and couples/families searching for healing and growth.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life and relationships. We can work together to heal trauma from the past and be your best self. I provide a safe space to explore past experiences, relationships and belief systems you may feel are limiting you from experiencing your wholeness so you can live a joyful life. If you are struggling to cope with stress of life's transitions, I encourage you to reach out.

I feel that the client for me is someone who is currently working on his/her inner awareness and how this then affects his/her life externally. This can be calmly working on life issues or the anxiety that can come when faced with existential issues of mortality (their own or a loved one's), such as with terminal illnesses or the important issue of "Who am I"?

Cultivating Happiness can be a challenge in these uncertain times. If you are struggling with life's challenges I can develop a plan for you to live in peace. 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. 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.

People come to me for many reasons. For some, they are overall doing well in their life, but feel that there's something going on inside that's keeping them from reaching their full potential and finding true happiness and fulfillment. Others are actively experiencing challenges in their life and are open to receiving support, while still others are in real pain, and are looking for relief and help with that.

Your life journey as a gay person is full of unique joys and challenges. Most of us never learned how to be gay (and happy). I get it. But know this: you can create the life you want. You can find your chosen family, heal the past, overcome shame find your passion and learn to finally love yourself at any age. And you don't have to trek up this mountain alone. As a gay counselor, my passion is helping fellow gay people develop their own toolkits to overcome anxiety, heal and thrive. As a gay man I've tackled similar mountains in my life using Cognitive Behavior Therapy and tools that work. If you are ready, I'd be honored to help.

The focus of counselling is to address what the client wants more of in his/her life. Most of the time the goal is to feel happier. As your counsellor I will provide a space and venue for patterns to be revealed and unconscious beliefs to be addressed. The results will be a greater sense of personal power in creating a life of contentment and choice.The conversation we have in the therapeutic environment is a purposeful one, it is about what works, what does not work and the strategies needed to shift from discontentment to contentment.
