Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
OCD can feel bossy, shaming, and relentless. I help you understand how obsessions and compulsions are trying to protect you, and we work on responding differently so OCD doesn’t run your day. Using parts-aware, trauma-responsive strategies and ERP-informed skills, we reduce rituals and avoidance while increasing your sense of choice. Treatment is collaborative and paced to your nervous system.

I help clients understand and work with the thoughts, urges, and patterns that show up in OCD. Together, we explore the underlying emotions and parts of yourself driving compulsions and anxiety. The goal is to develop insight, coping strategies, and greater freedom to live in alignment with your values.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Obsessive-compulsive patterns often keep you trapped in cycles of fear and ritual. I offer compassionate support that acknowledges how anxiety lives in the body. We’ll gently identify triggers, reduce shame around intrusive thoughts, and build flexibility. While I use exposure-informed tools, our work remains body-based and culturally sensitive to your unique experience.

Honolulu's surface image as a paradise can obscure significant mental health challenges tied to Hawaii's extreme cost of living — among the highest in the United States — the stress of geographic isolation, and the psychological weight carried by Native Hawaiian communities navigating cultural loss and historical trauma. The city has a majority Asian and Pacific Islander population, including large Japanese, Filipino, and Native Hawaiian communities, and culturally competent therapists who understand Pacific Islander family values and collectivist systems are especially sought after. Tripler Army Medical Center serves the military population across the Indo-Pacific Command, while The Queen's Medical Center provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Therapist availability in Honolulu is lower relative to comparable mainland metros, and telehealth has become important for residents seeking specialist matching beyond what is available locally.
