About

Leon Pereira, PhD

My specialization is in Mood Disorders (Depression, Bipolar Disorder), Anxiety Disorders, Anger, Behavior Problems (ADHD, Conduct Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, etc), Parenting Concerns, and Relationship Issues.

I help you to understand why you think, feel, and behave the way you do, to resolve negative feelings, to build on your strengths, and to teach you skills that will enable you to live the way you want to.

For couples and families, this approach is extended to help all involved and to the dynamics of their relationships.

I employ a collaborative, problem-solving, and skill-learning approach. Together we will identify your needs, formulate a plan, and follow a course of therapy that is best suited to your needs.

We will learn from the past, make changes in the present, and work toward your future goals.

I have a PhD in both Clinical Psychology and Behavioral Psychology and 23 years of diverse experience in outpatient, inpatient, day-treatment, and crisis intervention. My approach is primarily Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy--utilizing evidence-based, best practices to help you.

I am also an Adjunct Professor at Hawaii Pacific University.
