Aloha, I am a pre-licensed mental health professional located in Hawai'i practicing under the supervision of a licensed clinical social worker. I specialize in supporting adults and kūpuna (older adults) through life transitions, grief and loss, caregiving stress, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is warm, multicultural, and strengths-based—I meet you where you are, with deep respect for your lived experience and cultural identity.
Education & Training
I have a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling with an emphasis in gerontological counseling from San Francisco State University. I bring over two years of experience working with older adults living with mental illness, co-occurring substance use disorders, and the challenges of aging and caregiving. I’ve also supported young adult parents (ages 20–30) and children impacted by complex, intergenerational trauma. My clinical training includes CBT, DBT, psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-focused CBT.
