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.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience in outpatient behavioral health and healthcare leadership in Hawaiʻi. I work with adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem or emotional well-being.
I believe people are capable of growth and resilience, even during difficult periods of life. My goal is to help clients gain insight, develop effective coping strategies, and move toward lives that feel more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with their values.

I believe that you deserve to be your happiest, healthiest, and most empowered self.
Living in Hawai‘i offers so much beauty—but that doesn’t mean life always feels peaceful. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, or other mental health challenges, you don’t have to do it alone. I work with adults and teens to help them move toward healing, balance, and lasting change.
Hi I'm Anuhea! Pronounced Aw-new-hey-uh. I was born and raised in Hawaii and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Masters of Social Work from Pacific University Oregon. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Utah and Hawaii. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused, and Strengths-based approaches to engage with clients.
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.
I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
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.
