Find a therapist in Hawaii — covered by insurance

If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.

Hi. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. These are challenging times and I would love to be of support in helping you cope with anxiety, stress management, and life transitions. Building a trusting and supportive relationship is a primary component of my therapeutic practice and can be done using Tele Health video sessions from home. When making life decisions regarding how to best move forward, it can be extremely helpful to get an impartial, outside perspective. I have over four decades of experience in working with individuals, couples, and families and am accepting new clients at this time.

It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!

• I believe therapy can be a space for healing, growth, and even laughter. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, find your voice, and bring out the parts of you that may have gotten lost along the way. I work with clients ages 5 and up and strive to create a warm, welcoming environment where you can feel safe being yourself. Therapy is your journey, and I’m here to support and walk alongside you as you navigate it.

Many people move through life feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure how to care for

themselves while caring for everyone else. You might be wondering why life doesn’t feel better

or why you keep putting your own needs last. These experiences are more common than most

people realize, and they can take a real toll on your mind and body.

As someone with lived experience, I understand how challenging it can be to navigate

relationships, identity, stress, and the expectations placed on us. My approach to therapy is

integrative and person‐centered, grounded in your needs, preferences, and cultural worldview. I

believe therapy should feel like a space where you can breathe, reflect, and reconnect with

yourself.

Whether online or in person, I work to create a supportive environment where you can explore

concerns related to relationships, gender, trauma, grief, identity, and life transitions. My goal is to

help you cultivate greater clarity, resilience, and overall wellness because living a better life

shouldn’t feel out of reach.

Bio of Antoinette M. Rodrigues, MA, LMFT

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist:

Toni was born and raised on the island of O’ahu. She obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Social Sciences from Hawaii Pacific University. She completed her Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Argosy University Hawaii. She became a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Hawaii in 2018.

She has lived and worked on Maui for over 30 years, for a variety of State and non-profit agencies, and in private practice. She enjoys Hawaiian music and hula.

I am committed to step into your story of pain and help you to rewrite a story of renewal and hope. For fourteen years I have journeyed with clients overcoming sexual, physical and emotional abuse, neglect, car accidents, divorce, foster care, abandonment, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, blended family issues, intimacy/emotional disconnection in couples, and infidelity. After working with me, clients were able to identify their strengths, uncover negative core beliefs, and draw closer to their loved ones.

Do you ever feel like you’re going through the motions or making choices that don’t quite reflect who you want to be? Maybe you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in familiar patterns, or disconnected from the people and parts of life that matter most.

Therapy can be a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and create meaningful change. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way, build practical coping strategies, and strengthen the tools you already have. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and supportive, with a focus on making therapy both emotionally safe and practically useful in daily life.

Aloha! As a clinician with over 18 years of experience, my passion is working with children and families. Healthy families are the core unit of our society and can break negative patterns for ourselves and future generations, and I believe that early intervention can dramatically change the trajectory of a young person’s life. I feel privileged to help my clients achieve their goals and improve their lives by providing the professional guidance needed to navigate behavioral challenges, identity struggles, and family transitions.

I want my clients to feel safe and empowered during their time with me, knowing they have an experienced advocate committed to their success. My background as a UCLA graduate has allowed me to serve families across various life stages, from young children to adults navigating relationship hurdles. When I am not in the office, I find peace and restoration in the natural beauty of the islands, which keeps me grounded in my work.

I am a licensed psychologist, educator, and researcher dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges while building a stronger connection to themselves and their values. My professional background includes working in healthcare, higher education, community mental health, and veteran settings, giving me experience supporting clients from diverse cultural, racial, gender, and sexual identity backgrounds.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, identity exploration, and issues affecting LGBTQIA+ individuals. My research and clinical work have focused on understanding how culture, identity, and lived experiences shape mental health and well-being.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, respected, and empowered. Whether you're navigating a difficult transition, healing from past experiences, exploring your identity, or seeking greater fulfillment in your relationships and daily life, I strive to provide a supportive environment where meaningful growth can occur.

I've been a psychologist for over 10 years. I have practiced in different places across, the U.S., including Seattle, Hawai'i, and now Wilmington the past few years. I truly enjoy what I do. I believe working on your mental health makes life more satisfying, myself included. I work with adults from a variety of backgrounds, Common reasons people see me include: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, men's issues, and substance use.
