Hello and welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a thriving private practice on Maui. There is a saying -- "You do not have to be sick to get better." If you have been caught off guard by any of life's challenges, and feel more confusion or misery than normal, then perhaps a mental health clinician can help you. I invite you to call me for a free phone consultation to explore whether or not my therapeutic style is a fit for you.I offer short-term, practical, solution-focused therapy. You and I form a team and together we determine your goals for treatment. In our sessions I will ask you questions that can lead you to insight and clarity. I give you feedback in a compassionate way, and I might recommend some strategic exercises that you can practice in your everyday life. The special combination of doctoral level clinical psychology education and experience as a master's-prepared registered nurse gives me a unique perspective on the health of your mind/body connection. Sometimes emotional pain is expressed through headaches, stomachaches, or general malaise. On the other hand, it may be that physical suffering or fatigue are the source of your sadness or anxiety. Or, you may not have a problem at all but simply desire guidance from an objective listener in the form of life coaching or career counseling. Born and raised on Maui, and having lived on the East Coast for 11 years, I value diversity and provide culturally-sensitive care to individuals and families
