Adjective | “Characterized by the belief that the parts of something are interconnected and can be explained only by reference to the whole”
Embracing the wisdom that healing involves mind, body and spirit, my practice is dedicated to addressing contemporary mental health needs with a holistic, non-pathologizing approach. By blending complimentary modalities, I provide specialized support for individuals, couples and families navigating relationship challenges, trauma, sexuality, grief, transition, purpose, and personal growth. The services at Pacific Holistic Therapy are offered with intention, to guide you toward balance, resilience and awareness, in order to live a life you love.
“Through listening to the truth of the body, it is possible to discover what we can do, who we can be, what we can experience, how we can love.”

TELEHEALTH | Psychotherapy, Sex Therapy, Therapeutic Tarot
HAWAII | CALIFORNIA | ILLINOIS
Holistic Psychotherapy
Holistic psychotherapy services are offered via telehealth to individuals, couples and families across California, Hawaii and Illinois. With a deep commitment to whole-person healing, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore your relationships and inner world, cultivate resilience, and create positive change in your life. Through a blend of traditional psychotherapy and integrative healing modalities, I empower people to navigate life’s challenges, heal from past traumas, and thrive in mind, body, and spirit. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or personal growth, I’m here to help you on your journey.
Holistic Psychotherapy
If you’re looking for something beyond “traditional talk therapy”, you’ve come to the right place.
Holistic psychotherapy is a fusion of ancient wisdom practices and modern science. This approach provides a path toward self-discovery where mind and body are both integral to the process.
Rooted in neuroscience, embodiment practices such as mindfulness, movement, breathwork and therapeutic touch guide you through your healing journey. Creative arts, dreamwork and active imagination provide self-discovery through illumination of the subtle, unconscious, and transpersonal dimensions of your being. Whether navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship issues or simply embarking on a quest for self-discovery, holistic psychotherapy provides a dynamic path to healing and self-understanding.

Holistic Sex Therapy
If you’re facing challenges in your sex life or relationships, you’re not alone. As a trained sex therapist, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their sexual concerns and goals. Together, we’ll uncover underlying factors impacting your sex life, and I’ll provide you with the tools and support needed to overcome obstacles, cultivate sexual confidence, and experience greater intimacy and connection.
Whether you’re dealing with sexual dysfunction, relationship issues, or simply seeking to explore your sexuality, sex therapy offers a compassionate and effective path to psycho-sexual health and fulfillment.
Pleasure is our human birthright and the erotic is core to our human nature. I believe having an erotic life that is pleasurable and authentic is something everyone deserves.

Therapeutic Tarot
Therapeutic or Archetypal Tarot is a creative, vibrant path toward inner exploration, healing and personal growth. Using your favorite tarot and oracle decks to explore and illuminate personal truths, you can expect an experience that is interactive and immersive.
Unlike Divination Tarot, Therapeutic Tarot is not a reading but an experiential process.
Here, the seeker (you) interprets the meaning of the images presented by the cards, and I guide you in unfolding the narrative told by these images, through your personal associations.
This approach engages your unconscious in a way that allows access to emotions and personal truths that are otherwise hidden, much like dream work.

“Emotions can be mirrored in images, but emotions also alter our images, and our images can alter our emotions.”
