Individual Therapy
Individual Therapy provides help with a large range of challenges from anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, to difficulties in intimate relationships, at work, or in career conflicts. For the most part, individual therapy is a conversation about you, about the challenges you have faced and are currently facing, and how to master them. The ultimate goal of this therapy is to enhance your quality of life.
Couples Therapy & Marriage Counseling
Couples therapy is an opportunity to learn a new way to talk to each other. A safe place to practice new communication skills, guidance to help you face your most uncomfortable truths, and a path back to joy in your relationship. At the beginning of therapy, each partner will complete an extensive assessment, The Gottman Relationship Checkup, created by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. This assessment will score a relationship’s strengths and challenges and will provide specific therapeutic recommendations for interventions to work on in your therapy sessions.
Group Therapy & Psycho-education/Skill Building Groups
Group therapy and coaching can give you the opportunity to learn in a group setting and increase accountability on one's progress towards goals. An additional benefit of participating in a group setting is that you don’t only have one person's views, such as in individual Coaching, but multiple perspectives from individuals with similar goals but different experiences and views.
Payments
Payment is collected through our EHR, Simple Practice. It is securely stored on HIPAA-compliant servers and you won’t have to hassle with entering your information multiple times. The following payments are accepted: Credit Cards, Health Saving Account (HSA) Card, Flexible spending account (FSA) Card.
Insurance accepted only for Therapy Clients located in Hawaii: HMSA, UHA
Full Self-pay payments are due at the start of each visit. Co-payments are due at the start of each visit, please contact for optional co-payment arrangements.
Benefits of Self-Pay
Some individuals choose to pay for services independently for greater confidentiality and freedom in health care choices. Another unfortunate aspect of processing visits through insurance has to do with requests for records, limits on the number of sessions, and such. Lastly, utilizing insurance means you are given a mental health diagnosis that may be taken into consideration for future situations like life insurance policies or certain employment opportunities (law enforcement, government work, and military). These are points to consider as you make your payment choices.
