About Lani
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I began my college education, located in a humble community of Laie, Hawaii where I was raised until the age of 21. After leaving my hometown, I completed my remaining undergraduate degree in psychology through distance learning and later earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2007 from the University of Phoenix. I currently practice via online telehealth only and have done so since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. My therapy approach is eclectic, meaning I combine different therapeutic approaches based on the presenting concerns and goals that are adapted to the needs of the person via the use of cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, brief therapy and solution-focused therapy with particular attention to the psychoanalytic processes, which emphasizes how life events and relationship experiences both past and present may be affecting your current relationships, issues and/or circumstances. What I can bring to the counseling environment to help you with this is a style that I believe to be approachable and warm so that my patients are able to 1) actively process and explore, 2) find their way, 3) learn about themselves and 4) grow to be directors of their life. In short, to help you have the most successful experience in counseling it is important to me that we work together in establishing what your needs are and how I can be of most benefit to you. With that comes responsibility for your mental health and dedication of your time to your mental health needs. To be more specific, I ask that you not just do therapy sessions once a week for 30-45 minutes but that also be proactive and committed with working on your mental health needs outside of therapy as well via homework that is completed in a timely manner as opposed to completing it right before your sessions as I need time to look over said homework and cannot do this effectively when it is sent back the day of. I am genuinely interested in what brings you to therapy and hope that you would feel comfortable working with me as I look forward to working with you. Lani Read more Show less
