As our lives constantly change, our perspectives about others, life circumstances, as well as ourselves are also changing. On some days, we might feel “on top of the world,” while on others, we might feel anxious, defeated, and/or unloved. When we hear, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade,” and think that it’s just too hard to do right now, know that being open to a new perspective and change, even at this very moment, is already enough.

We all encounter difficult times in life. Fortunately, the loneliness, pain, loss, and stress that we experience within these times are not permanent. They are not the end of the story. Rather, it is in our nature to overcome the difficulties and adversity that we are faced with. A deeper knowing, softer heart, and inner strength await on the other side. While facing our struggles independently of others has its value, wisdom lies in recognizing the importance of trusting in safe relationships to help us through the difficult times that we face.

Aloha, my name is LaVon, and I want to first say great job on taking the first and necessary step to address your challenges. Therapy can provide you with the space you need to safely and openly explore your experiences of trauma, conflict, and loss. Addressing these experiences in therapy without the stigmas and fear of judgment can be useful in alleviating stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. The relationship that ensues between the client and therapist along with the client's strengths, insight, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, facilitates growth toward goal achievement.

It has been my experience that an important component of successful therapy is the therapeutic relationship that gets formed.
I enjoy working with most people, and find that I am effective to the extent that a safe and trusting space can be created where my client is able to communicate whatever they need to without fear of judgement.
I have also found that I am not able to be of any help at all, unless my client is invested in their healing process, willing to do the work that's involved, and is not looking for their therapist to tell them what to do.

My primary training for being a psychologist was growing up in my own dysfunctional family. After many spiritual groups and a couple years in India with Ram Dass, I finally returned to school to finish my doctorate. I have trained in a number of mind/body therapies (EMDR, Brainspotting, Bioenergetics, Process Acupressure, Somatic Experiencing), since it is my experience that just talking about one’s problems do not usually allow one to make a deep shift. And yes, I do take QUEST plans (except Kaiser)

There are many changes in the ebbs and flows of life that can bring us to a place where we realize we’re stuck and don’t know how to move forward. Part of the reason I became a therapist was my own experience needing help to gain perspective and grow when I felt like I couldn’t see where else to go. Now I seek to connect with the clients I serve to help them feel seen and explore new paths together. I specialize in helping you recognize emotional patterns that you may be struggling with and providing inspiration to build new ones.

Accepting new clients for in-person and telehealth sessions! Have you been feeling sad or anxious lately? You've noticed that you are more down than usual, not wanting to spend time with friends or do fun things, like how you used to in the past? Or, maybe you are going through the motions, but missing inner joy. You may appear to have it all together, but inside you may be struggling, feeling depressed or anxious. Daily tasks can feel overwhelming. Anxiety and depression can affect your overall well being. Do you feel dependent on others' approval, have negative self-talk or feel a lack of confidence?

Are you feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, angry or just dissatisfied with your relationships, your work, or your life? We all are conditioned by our experiences and impacted by genetics, but with awareness and compassion you can begin to make choices that are more fulfilling, satisfying and meaningful. The more we are able to meet the full range of our emotions and all aspects of our internal dialogue, the more freedom we have to be our genuine selves.
