Aloha Kākou, my name is Chasdy Wright, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Hawai`i. I enjoy working with self-aware women who want to improve their self-esteem, confidence, and relationship skills so they can feel less anxious, depressed, and alone in life. People-Pleasers and Perfectionists, I am here for you. This provider resides in Hawaii.
My approach
My approach is to explore the thoughts, feelings, and BELIEFS that are not working, using a variety of modalities, including Narrative and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I also use experiential activities, strength-based stories, and solution-focused processing to support you in having “AHA moments,” shift your perspective, and move forward toward a future you would love.
My focus
My style and approach seem to be a good fit for women ages 15-35 who relate to people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-criticism. Overachievers and over-thinkers that feel stuck stressed, and scared of letting others down appreciate my open attitude. I empower them to trust themselves, practice self-love, have healthier relationships, and finally enjoy their accomplishments.
My communication style
My communication style is friendly, honest, and emphatic. I am interested in my client’s stories and listen without criticism. I also believe this self-discovery process can be fun, so we even smile and laugh in sessions.
My journey to mental healthcare
Growing up in Hawai`i, I learned to take care of others and would push myself so hard to accomplish my goals. In my mental health journey, I have seen how it important it is to also take care of myself and enjoy my success instead of always being so hard on myself. Since I can remember, I have been reading self-help books, making vision boards, and having deep heart-to-hearts with people. I am so inspired by this work and by people who have been through so much and continue to work on loving others and themselves.
My goals for you
We will look at a few things when setting goals. First is where you are now and what are your pains and discomforts. Next is identifying what you would love to have, be, or do. Then we focus on small steps to getting there and developing the beliefs that will keep you on track.
My first session with you
The first session is easy-going and the main thing is to get a feel of each other. It can be so hard to ask for help and find someone you would open up to, so in the first session we will get to see if we are a good fit for one another.
