Aloha, I understand therapy as an open and collaborative conversation, one we can have at any point in our lives. My sessions do not emphasize a person’s diagnoses, and I never view people through the lens of pathology. I prefer to build a warm and nurturing environment that provides space for us to address your specific needs.
