I provide therapeutic coaching in a safe, supportive, & validating environment. I specialize in helping clients of all ages overcome various sleep concerns - such as insomnia, hypersomnia/narcolepsy, PAP adherence, sleep phase/circadian issues, pediatric sleep problems, nightmares, parasomnias - using non-medication lifestyle & behavioral change strategies. I also help clients better understand their problems, increase insight & self-awareness, & build life skills/stress coping related to anxiety/panic, relationship issues, parenting, depression, trauma, grief/bereavement, & chronic pain/disease management. I am Hawaii's first board certified behavioral sleep medicine specialist, and a medical/health psychologist. I am also Cognitive Behavioral generalist, & provide evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills training, & Emotion-Focused Therapy. My aim is to support my clients to become their own therapist during what may be one of the most challenging times in their life. If you have the desire to improve your relationships with yourself and others, your physical and emotional health, your overall sense of well-being, or all of the above... please reach out. I offer in-office & online video appts.
