Aloha & welcome to my page. Do you feel like you have lost your way – that nothing feels quite right – or that the past seems to be repeating itself? My view is that we all begin from a place of wholeness, but we sometimes lose belief in ourselves along the way. I have the depth of professional and life experience to see and work with you as a unique individual. Let me be a support and guide as you navigate the journey to your true potential. My expertise includes a broad range of issues including traumas, anxiety, emotional difficulties, relationships, and divorce related issues. My education includes training in eastern and western philosophies. In my work I use an integrative therapeutic approach and I weave together ancient with modern, east and west for personalized healing of heart-mind-soul. I am licensed in several states; Hawaii, California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado & Utah. I hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology and a master's degree in Marriage, Family & Child Counseling. Start today to begin your journey to a better you. * please note my availability varies from week to week. Therefore, what is displayed on the Better Help site calendar is not accurate. I do have much more availability throughout the week than what is displayed. However, since I have varying availability there was not an easy way to indicate that on the Better Help calendar. So, just check with me : )

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing for over 15 years. I hold independent clinical licenses in Hawaii, Colorado and New Mexico. My approach to therapy is to build trusting relationships that allow for honesty and authenticity. I strive to assist people of any age to recognize their natural potential and learn to move past unhealthy patterns and develop new narratives. I specialize in trauma related conditions, depression, anxiety, self-harm, substance use disorders, acting out behavioral problems, parenting, couples and family conflict. In therapy I draw upon my training in EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Family Systems to promote sustainable change. I like to focus on healthy communication and use various tools to promote health relationships. I commend you for taking the first step towards feeling better. Feeling comfortable and safe with your therapist is important and necessary for the change process to unfold. I encourage you to reach out and contact me to see if working together in therapy feels like a good fit.

Welcome! My name is Angela Mendiola and I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have been practicing in the counseling profession for the past 6 years. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Chaminade University of Honolulu with an emphasis in Mental Health. My professional training include graduate internships at Kailua High School, the Chaminade University Counseling Center and a national internship funded by North Carolina State University as a Project Youth Extension Service Intern where I served military youth impacted by deployment for one year. Three components that I find most important in a therapeutic alliance are cultural sensitivity, empathetic understanding and listening. The most profound and insightful thing that I have learned in my years as a mental health professional is that maintaining your mental health is important regardless of what stage of life you are in and it is a practice that may assist you in building meaningful social connections, healthy coping skills and to clarify life goals. I also believe that education and knowledge truly is power so I aim to provide you with self-help or informative tools such as articles supported by trusted sources that explain what you may be experiencing and how you can spark positive change in your life. I’ve worked with individuals who have faced significant grief and loss in their lives, those who struggle with establishing meaningful relationships and connections with others, and those who have had suicidal thoughts. I am also well versed, professional, in the struggles of anxiety. My therapeutic style involves helping you to clarify any goals that you would like to prioritize, brainstorming and discussing strategies and building coping skills that you can begin using immediately to make positive change in your life.

I am a marriage and family therapist who is licensed to practice in the beautiful states of Hawaii, Florida, and South Carolina. For the last 13 years, I have been working with clients from incredibly varied backgrounds dealing with a wide range of concerns. My most frequent work has been with people struggling with substance use issues, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and interpersonal and family relationship concerns. When I was 17, my mother passed away and I struggled with the grief and life-changes that followed. I sought the help of a marriage and family therapist and it was through her compassion and wisdom that I was able to navigate this difficult time. This therapist inspired me to want to help others in the way I had been helped and so I began my extensive studies in the world of marriage and family therapy. Over the last 20 years, I have learned and drawn from such modalities as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Structural Family Therapy. Just as my family had to encourage me to seek treatment after the death of my mother, I want to encourage you to reach out to someone who can help you with whatever you are struggling with. If that person is me, I would be honored to listen to your concerns and work with you to achieve a positive outcome.
