Tailor-Made Therapy

I start with understanding where you are at now, and how you got here. I help you by working collaboratively in developing goals.

In-person & virtual therapy for individuals, families, children, and teens.
"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds."
- Bob 'Nesta' Marley

Staying stuck in the rat race of our minds can feel as if there is no way out. Talking about what's really going on below the surface can feel overwhelming and like we won’t be understood or even worse accepted. Talking about our dark secrets can be a scary yet necessary step to living our true authentic self. Don’t stay in the dark alone; let Redemption Songs Family Therapy help light the way on your journey.

Aloha Begins From Within

Live your life with "Aloha!"

When you are ready to live your authentic life and heal from life experiences, I am here for you.

Aloha!

Connection matters and knowing your therapist can speak your language makes a difference. That is why I offer a personal touch to our sessions together. Understanding you through the lens you view yourself will allow me guide you through understanding that we are ever evolving and that self-esteem is a continued journey. Mahalo!
