Therapy benefits people in times of acute struggle as well as with the stressors of daily life. It supports those looking to set and reach goals, enhance their current situation, and create positive transformation in their lives. Therapy can help identify what the life we want looks like, ways we can grow, and how we can remove or manage roadblocks that may stand in the way of reaching our full potential. As a therapist I strive to create safe space where we are able to explore the difficulties as well as the joys of life and build on the potential that each of us holds.

We all have times in our lives that carry burden, darkness and pain. We can be held back by fears, limiting beliefs and attempted distractions that over time have lost their luster, and ultimately impact the quality of our connection to ourselves and others. It is often the bravest thing we can do to take a stand and be willing to own our story. A collaborative therapeutic setting creates a safe and nonjudmental space to harness curiosity, empathy, awareness, and a more integrated connection to the Self, thus opening new pathways to personal healing and growth. I consider it a privilege to be a support to you in this journey.

Sometimes, you may experience some life obstacles that lower your quality of living. It helps to talk about your difficulties in psychotherapy so that you may learn the strategies and coping mechanisms to better deal with your difficulties, raise your quality of life, and enjoy your relationships with others. In my practice, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where we can discuss these issues and find solutions together. I provide services to individuals (from the toddler to elderly age groups), families, and couples.

Aloha! I am a credentialed Art Therapist and Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Hawaii. I have experience working with all ages; children, adolescents, adults and families. Art is a universal language that communicates from the heart. Sometimes there are no words to express what is going on inside of us. The process of creating art provides an image, a piece of the puzzle of our life. When a series of images are put together, they tell a story. Whether the condition is depression or anxiety, a crisis, a traumatic event or a series of events, art therapy becomes a way to process, express and communicate your story.
