Questions You Might Be Asking
-
I’m in the process of adding insurance plans in Hawaii, so feel free to reach out to ask what’s currently available.
In the meantime, many clients choose to pay out of pocket for the privacy, flexibility, and depth this work allows. -
That’s exactly who I work with. This isn’t surface-level talk therapy. We go deeper into the body, the unconscious, and the patterns that insight alone couldn’t change.
-
The aim is to make therapy as focused and brief as possible, while ensuring you get what you came for. Everyone moves at their own pace, and what matters most is that you feel therapy is helping you and that you leave each session with something positive or healing.
If you ever feel therapy isn’t moving the way you hoped, talking about it can be incredibly valuable. Sharing your experience gives both you and your therapist a chance to explore any roadblocks, realign expectations, and find ways to make your sessions more effective.
-
It’s not just talking. We slow down, notice what’s showing up in your body, and work with real-time emotional and relational patterns. I’m present, honest, and attuned. This is a collaborative process.
-
Somatic therapy focuses on how stress and trauma are held in the body, not just in thoughts or emotions. Rather than only talking about problems, we pay attention to nervous system responses, physical sensations, and patterns of tension or shutdown.
At Integrative Growth Counseling, somatic work is integrated with depth and relational therapy to help change occur at both emotional and physiological levels.
-
Jungian therapy is a depth-oriented approach developed by Carl Jung that focuses on understanding the deeper patterns shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Rather than only addressing symptoms, it explores the underlying meaning behind recurring struggles, life transitions, and emotional conflicts.
In Jungian work, difficulties are often seen as signals that something within the psyche is trying to change or come into awareness. Therapy may include exploring patterns in relationships, dreams, inner conflicts, or parts of yourself that have been overlooked or pushed aside. The goal is not simply to reduce distress, but to support greater integration helping you feel more whole, grounded, and aligned with who you are.
At Integrative Growth Counseling, Jungian therapy is integrated with trauma-informed and somatic approaches. This allows insight, emotional experience, and nervous system regulation to work together, so change happens not only intellectually, but experientially.
-
We move at your pace. I prioritize safety, consent, and trust so you can explore what’s hard without feeling overwhelmed.
What it helps with:
Complex or developmental trauma
Emotional dysregulation or shutdown
Fear of being re-traumatized in therapy
Feeling unsafe or on edge, even when “nothing’s wrong”
-
Yes. I offer secure online counseling for adults located anywhere in Hawaii. Online sessions allow you to engage in therapy from the comfort and privacy of your own space while maintaining the same depth and attentiveness as in-person work.
Online counseling can be especially helpful for individuals with busy schedules, limited access to specialized therapy on their island, or those who feel more at ease working from home. Sessions remain trauma-informed, somatic, and relational, with attention to pacing, nervous system regulation, and meaningful integration.
