I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Hawaii with a fairly young practice. I attended school late in life, and understand life's developmental issues. I am a conservative Christian, and look forward to helping anyone who is seeking help. I am not judgmental, and can work with any population. Most of my work over the past 5 years has been with people with Serious Mental Illness (SMI). I believe this has given me a strong base to work with clients from all walks of life, facing all kinds of issues. I use a variety of techniques, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, relaxation and breathing techniques, among others. I believe that people know themselves better than anyone, and often know what they need to do, and just need some support and encouragement to move forward in life.

Andrew Newhouse
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.

Terry-Ann Moses
My approach to therapy is reflected by the quote “Many hands make light work”. This quote reminds us that the load we carry is lighter when shared, especially in an empathetic, supportive, and nurturing environment. I work with a diverse group of clients, ranging from adults aged 18 and older, across various demographics such as age, race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. My role involves helping these individuals develop effective coping skills to manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and other difficulties that arise throughout life. I focus on providing personalized support to address the unique struggles each client faces, assisting them in navigating the complexities of their emotional and social well-being. Over the course of my career, I’ve observed that many clients lack the crucial support they need to achieve their goals. Often, these individuals have been unintentionally or intentionally hindered by those they trusted most. I’ve also worked with clients who are the strongest supporters of their family and friends but find themselves without the support they need when facing their own struggles. As a therapist, my goal is to provide unwavering encouragement and support to those who need it most, while equipping my clients with the tools and strategies to become the best versions of themselves. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
