About
I've had a psychotherapy practice in rural Pahoa for 18 years. Psychotherapy/Counseling works best when clients are met by someone who really cares AND the therapist has a wide-range of psycho-therapeutic skills and Life Experience. I work with anxiety, trauma, depression, bi-polar, grief, coping skills and other challenges. In addition to individual sessions, I offer couples counseling and mediation. Previously I've worked for the Hawaii Dept of Health, Mental Health Division; hospice patients as Director of SW at Hospice Hawaii and at Oahu Community Correctional Center. Effective therapists draw on more than one specialty and modality. I have certificates in EMDR (mainly for trauma), mediation, nutrition and body-centered psychotherapy. I have an eclectic approach based on the needs of my clients. In our sessions there may be tears as well as laughter., insight as well as emotion, complete problem resolution or learning the best coping strategies FOR YOU ! In my comfortable office you'll hear birds singing and breathe fresh air--a healing environment is an important part of healing.
