Licensed to practice in Hawaii and accepts 35 insurances. Specializes in Child or Adolescent, Life Transitions, Self Esteem and 10 more.
As a compassionate and solution-focused family therapist, I work closely with children, adolescents, families and individuals navigating life 's transitions, challenges, and emotional struggles. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and practical tools that foster growth and healing. I provide a supportive space where clients feel safe to open up, explore new perspectives, and move confidently toward meaningful, and lasting change.
In our first session, my focus is on creating a safe, welcoming space where you feel comfortable sharing your story. You can expect me to listen without judgment, ask questions to better understand your experience, and begin identifying strengths and possible paths forward. This initial session is about building trust, setting a foundation, and helping you feel supported as we begin this journey toward meaningful changes
As a compassionate and solution-focused family therapist, my approach centers on helping clients find clarity direction, and practical tools to create meaningful change. I believe in focusing on strengths, not problems, and work collaboratively with children, adolescents, and individuals to build on what's already working. My clients appreciate the safe, supportive space I provide and often express how empowered and hopeful they feel after our sessions. I'm committed to guiding families through challenges with empathy, respect, and a clear path forward.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents and individuals who are eager for change and ready to take positive steps forward. I provide play and sandplay therapy as a hands-on approach through in-office therapy sessions as well.
