Hello and Aloha! I'm Gary. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I've been practicing therapy for over 25 years. I am committed to partnering with you on your path to healing and growth. You know yourself better than anyone else on this planet. You know your strengths (yes, we all have them) and your limitations (yes, we all have them). We have all been challenged while living in this world. I provide a trusting environment and build our therapeutic relationship by unpacking your situation at a pace comfortable to you. I generally use a client-centered, solution-focused, and strengths perspective in my therapy. 

I started my career in a small non-profit in Houston, Texas. I was a generalist but gravitated toward people who experienced trauma and loss. Over the years, I had a variety of positions (some in management and some not) but have maintained my commitment to engaging with clients and partnering with them on their therapeutic journey. I always feel honored when people invite me into their world and I hope to support you along your path. Goals will be identified early in our relationship and will come out of a deep exploration of your situation. You set the goals. I just keep us on track and support you through the process. Looking forward to working with you!
