Hello! My name is Kristi Tanaka. I earned my Psy.D. in 2020 and a Master of Social Work from the University of Hawai'i in 2001, and I am credentialed as an LCSW and Board-Certified Diplomate (BCD). From 2009 through 2017, I worked for the Department of Defense at Schofield Barracks Health Clinic and Tripler Army Medical Center, providing therapy to dual-diagnosed service members, with a clinical focus on combat-related PTSD and military family issues. My experience also includes working with the severely and persistently mentally ill, at-risk youth, and children ages zero to three and their families through Easter Seals Hawai'i.
I offer supportive, evidence-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. In our sessions, you will be truly heard without pressure to fix everything at once. Together, we will explore your story, build practical tools for healing and growth, and help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
In our work together, you can expect to feel more confident, more at ease sharing your story, and even find moments of laughter. My approach is warm, welcoming, and down-to-earth, with a focus on what truly helps you feel better and move forward. If you are ready for care that feels genuine, compassionate, and personal, I would be honored to work with you.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in El Paso, TX is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within Marriage counseling include:
Marriage counseling works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular marriage counseling sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Marriage counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage counseling for 12 weeks. However, marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in El Paso, TX work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.
