I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and Hawaii and a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor in Hawaii with over 17 years experience of experience providing therapeutic services. I focus on high-risk self-harm, LGBTQ+, sexuality, substance use and traunma. I provide psychotherapy in person in Hawaii and via telehealth in Hawaii and California to adult individuals and couples through a lens of harm reduction while using solution-focused brief therapy, CBT, and ego psychology. As a sex-positive gay man, I understand that emotional distress and self-destructive behavior are often the result of external factors like boundary violations, feeling misunderstood, or oppression. Let's embark on this journey of finding your peace so you can start living your best life!
