Therapists in Hawaii
I am a psychodynamic therapist trained in Berkeley, Calif., and primarily work from Object Relations and Control Mastery theories. I also incorporate the Japanese based Naikan psychotherapy and Mindfulness Meditation that may benefit from more of an Eastern approach in their treatment.

Every individual in society is different so that per their perspectives, they formulate their opinion and a set of behavior. Under the theory of individual perception, the science which sounds theoretically proven and reasonable comes to play its role, resulting in various consequences. However, I believe that the perception created under the societal and scientific rules is not equivalent to neither the human mind nor the psychiatric world of the individual because human beings have unlimited imagination. I am looking for expanding the dimension of variables regarding the scientifically proven therapeutic methods

My approach to therapy is holistic. I work with body, mind and spirit to bring about wholeness and harmony within yourself & your relationships. Perhaps you’re functioning well-enough and struggling with creativity, relationships, stress, past trauma, family wounding or life purpose; or you’re not functioning well and common therapy approaches have failed to help. My approach and therapeutic style is unique, and likely different from therapeutic experiences you've had before. I combine somatic psychology, depth psychology, bodywork, creative practices and a relational style that is supportive, evocative and sometimes even fun!

Regardless of age, social status, or family of origin, the way we feel about ourselves affects the way we see the world, experience our lives, and manage our relationships. Having local roots but being born and raised in "the big city" on the mainland, I know from experience what it's like growing up with a variety of obstacles and needing to navigate the sometimes fearsome and foreboding world. These experiences have fueled my present day commitment to help others stand up, have hope, and see possibilities.

My approach to therapy hinges on finding what works for you as an individual. This takes a lot of honesty and courage about the things with which you struggle. My commitment to my clients is to help them see these dynamics more clearly from a place of clarity, dignity, & respect and empower them towards a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling. I have a strong focus on relationships. This includes the connections we have with meaningful people in our lives as well as the relationship we have with ourselves. Naturally, topics such as belonging, accountability, and shared experience tend to be important conversations for us.

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.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. We all are impacted by the families we grew up in, events we experienced and the relationships in our lives. It impacts how we view ourselves and the world around us. It determines how we respond to people and events. If you struggle with anxieties, depression, life challenges, and transitions, therapy can open new doors. I view therapy as a collaboration - walking together for a stretch to resolve issues or conflicts you would like to work on.

Everyone has a story. I want to hear yours. My experience as a therapist has led me to find this approach as a very effective one in bringing the transformation that people seek. Many of my patients have been surprised at how comfortable yet profound the therapeutic process has been for them. Yes, it does take hard work and personal commitment. But you won't be doing this alone. I am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy, viewing our therapeutic relationship as central to the change process.
