Kesha is restored my faith and hope in therapy after two unhealthy therapeutic experiences. Her approach of compassionately walking alongside me as a client/patient instead of "over"me has made all the difference.

Kesha has been the best. I could go on forever about how grateful I am to have her as my therapist. She has given me the tools I need to combat daily stresses and challenges without feeling like it’s all going to fall apart. She’s so kind and understanding I can tell she really cares about her clients. She’s amazing. Thank you Kesha!
More about Kesha
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed to practice in the state of Hawai'i. With over twenty years of professional experience, I help adults cope more effectively with a variety of concerns, including, but not limited to, stress, anxiety, depression, grief, post-traumatic stress (military deployment, abuse), and various life changes.
I collaborate with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. My therapy style and approach are wide-ranging in nature and are largely influenced by evidenced-based treatments that challenge and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) and promote skills training in the areas of being present-focused, improving social interactions, managing/tolerating distress, and controlling emotions (Dialectical Behavior Therapy).
My experience is varied as I have provided therapy to civilians, active-duty service members, and Veterans in traditional outpatient and residential settings, as well as, remotely via telehealth services. My passion is to meet my clients where they are and to assist them with getting to where they want to be.
Taking the first step to achieving a more enriching and satisfying life takes courage. I am here to support my clients along that process.

About online counselling
- Counselling without referrals.
- No doctor referral required.
- Convenient.
- Virtual counselling sessions are a flexible alternative to in-person therapy.
- Available now.
- Counselling in as little as 48 hours. No waiting list and no calls to make.
Online counselling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counselling is generally more affordable than in-person counselling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counselling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I have recommended BetterHelp to a friend based on my experience with this therapist
This was our first session Kesha was very patient, knowledgeable, and professional l look forward to our next session
I haven't been involved in therapy for a very long time. I was immediately comfortable with Kesha and felt very supported and heard. I look forward to our sessions. I am becoming stronger and feeling better everyday.
Great interaction
Kesha is a grounded pillar of support in my life she is caring and holds me accountable. I am grateful to have her expertise as a resource ??
Keisha is always engaging, listening, and prioritizing my emotions and needs in our sessions. I highly recommend her and love working with her.
Been with Kesha for a short few months, but she has quickly become the best therapist I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She is professional and kind and listens intently. She clearly communicates and gives me tools to help me deal with such huge life changes and all the anxiety that goes with it. Grateful for our first few sessions and eagerly looking forward to many more! Mahalo Kesha!
Kesha is a very active listener and is great at putting things into perspective that I wasn’t able to see before. She is very helpful in asking questions that get to the root of why I might be feeling what I’m feeling and helps process those feelings. She has an amazing welcoming energy and understanding that makes it so easy to talk to her. Thank you Kesha!
Fantastic experience! Very helpful
I only had a few therapy sessions with her, but she made me feel really comfortable and she was very supportive. I am going through a difficult time and I am really glad I had therapy with Kesha.
