Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Honolulu, HI


Welcome — I'm so glad you're here. I'm David Guo, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) serving clients throughout Honolulu and across all of Hawaii via secure telehealth. Whether you're in Downtown Honolulu or on Maui, Molokai, Kauai, or the Big Island, I'm here to support you. I believe real healing starts with real connection. That means taking time to truly know you — your story, your life, your goals — so you never feel like just a chart. You won't feel rushed here. I'm available weekdays (evenings too) and weekends.

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.
