Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to change — you don't have to navigate it alone. Let's work toward meaningful, lasting change together.
I have been in private practice since 2001, working with a wide range of individuals — adults, adolescents, couples, and people from many different cultural and personal backgrounds. My work spans depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, and much more.
I bring to every session not only formal clinical training but a life shaped by genuine curiosity about people. After Cornell, I spent three years in the Peace Corps in the Philippines, and extended time in Japan, China, and Taiwan — experiences that continue to inform how I understand and connect with the diverse range of people I work with.
I am clear about this: good therapy depends on the quality of the relationship. My job is to understand you — your history, your culture, your values, your particular way of being in the world — and to work from there.
No single approach fits every person. I draw on a range of evidence-based methods, woven together in whatever way best serves you.
I accept most major commercial insurance plans in Hawaiʻi. Most clients have coverage — and with HMSA, your copay is $0. Not sure if your plan is accepted? Just ask when you reach out and I'll let you know right away.
