About
Welcome! I’m a Licensed Social Worker based in Hilo, Hawai‘i, and I’m here to support individuals who want to go from surviving to thriving. I believe therapy is best when individualized, so I like to tailor my approach to your specific needs. I specialize in helping individuals facing addiction, those wanting to explore their gender identity, and people navigating life on the Autism spectrum. I also assist parents with expanding their parenting skills and overcoming challenges with child behavior. I provide a safe, affirming, and nonjudgmental space for clients to explore their unique challenges and strengths. I bring a compassionate, evidence-based approach to help you move forward with clarity and confidence. My work is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness. I recognize the importance of your individual story and work collaboratively to build a therapeutic relationship that honors your lived experience.
