About me

Aloha, I am a licensed clinical social worker in Hawaii with over 10 years of experience providing therapy and psychoeducation. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, career challenges, self-esteem/confidence, major life changes, physical trauma , and emotional abuse, among others. I have also worked extensively with military and their families and understand the military culture.

I use a warm, interactive therapy style. I believe in mutual respect and building trust to facilitate learning new tools, strategies, and ways of thinking to improve your life and empower your future. I combine various approaches like cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and mindfulness therapy based on your specific needs. Clients have said I make them feel heard and understood. Others have reported appreciating my fair, honest, challenging, yet kind approach. And still others, who were once skeptics, stated our work together turned them into believers that therapy can actually work.

If any of this resonates with you, I would be happy to be your partner in change.
I look forward to working with you!

Michele is already making a great impact on my life. She listens, really, really listens and has helped me identify the root causes of my feelings. I also feel she is extremely well educated and shares that education with me when processing my emotions. I can’t thank her enough for her help, and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a non-judgemental neutral third party to help sift through life :). She is great!

Michele is truly amazing. Literally the best therapist I have ever spoke with. If I had a more open schedule during the day, I would talk to her daily!!!!!

Michelle has been so amazing, not just listening but participating and offering multiple ways for me to explore the things I need to work on. She provides input as well, which is very important to me in order to see things from another perspective. She’s encouraged me in a lot of ways and also made me more aware of my assumptions I tend to project into others when that might not be what they are experiencing or thinking. She reminds me to give myself some grace, and I need that!
