Online mental health therapy
for adults across Hawai‘i
You can have it together and still feel stuck.
Therapy for anxiety, trauma, relationship patterns, boundaries, and identity
You might be here because…
You overthink conversations and question yourself afterward
You take care of everyone but struggle to ask for what you need
You feel guilty setting boundaries
The past still affects how you feel, react, or connect
You find yourself repeating the same relationship patterns
You understand yourself intellectually, but nothing seems to change
You know something needs to change, but you’re not sure what comes next

I care about the backstory, but I also care about what changes.
My style is warm, direct, and curious. We’ll connect what’s happening now to the experiences and patterns that shaped it, while paying attention to your thoughts, emotions, body, and relationships.
Insight matters, but knowing why isn’t always enough. We’ll also build practical ways to work with what comes up, process what still feels stuck, and practice responding differently in everyday life.
The goal isn’t to never get anxious, activated, shut down, or pulled into an old pattern again. It’s to notice what’s happening sooner, understand what you need, and have more choice in what happens next.
You’re ready when the pattern can show up without taking over.
-
We start by making sure you have enough support and practical tools to work with what comes up.
From there, we’ll understand the pattern, work through what still feels stuck, and practice new responses until they become easier to use in everyday life.
-
Change happens when insight becomes something you can feel, practice, and live.
Understanding yourself matters, but insight alone does not always change what happens in the moment.
Change also happens through the body, through relationships, and through repeated experiences of doing something differently.
-
You’ll notice your patterns sooner and have more choice before fear, shame, urgency, or old roles take over.
You’ll become more able to ground yourself, understand what you need, set limits, express yourself, and work through difficult moments without abandoning yourself.
You won’t need to feel completely “finished.” You may be ready to graduate therapy when you no longer need me to do all the noticing for you.
You’re ready when the pattern can show up without taking over.

We’ll review fees, insurance, and any expected costs before scheduling your first appointment.
Insurance
I currently accept:
HMSA (Fed/HMO, PPO, QUEST)
UHA
HMAA (HWMG)
Kaiser and more (through Rula)
Coverage and out-of-pocket costs vary by plan, so I recommend confirming your outpatient mental health benefits before beginning therapy.
Out-of Network
You may be able to use out-of-network benefits for partial reimbursement. I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance plan.
Private Pay
My private-pay rate is $150 per session.
Sliding Scale
I strive to make therapy more accessible. If you’re interested in a reduced private-pay rate, I’ll send you a brief application to review your financial need and determine whether a sliding-scale spot is available.
