More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 7 State: Hawaii

Hi. My name is Kameron Apostol-Chinn, LCSW. I am a firm believer that everyone on earth needs to put work into themselves, because we've all had our own life experiences and hang-ups. We ALL have something that we need to work on, and it's OK. I believe that healing and growth can happen for everyone. I also believe that, "the more we share, the more we heal". Addressing ourselves and our past is not easy, but it is always worth it in the long run.

I am an Air Force Veteran with one tour to Afghanistan. I spent 11 years working in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), with six of those years providing counseling. During my time with the VA I had worked with Active Duty Military, National Guard, Reserve, and Veterans dealing with Combat PTSD, anger, anxiety, depression, nightmares, and readjustment issues. Also worked with Male and Female Veterans who have experienced Sexual Trauma. I've also gotten the chance to work with spouses of Military members and Veterans.

In my time counseling and in social work, I've been able to work with individuals dealing with a number of other issues and experiences, as well. I've been able to help people address their childhood trauma, including verbal, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. I've had the opportunity to work with individuals of all ages, sexes, nationalities, cultural and geographical backgrounds, sexual orientations, etc.

I'm looking forward to working, together, with you.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Kameron tells me what I need to hear not what I want to hear. In a short time I am already noticing a difference in how I feel everyday- and it’s for the better. I’d recommend him to anyone I care about.

Kameron quickly identified my co-dependency and informed me of the potential my partner is narcissistic, all with an hour's discussion of our dysfunctional relationship. My partner and I have seen two therapists, one for years, and neither ever mentioned either of our potential diagnoses. He shares excellent information sources for me to follow up on; seems to have them in his back pocket. He is always on time and direct without being blunt. Really seems to know his stuff. It's rare that I feel this well connected to a therapist, and I've spent probably 10 years with 5 others during my 50 adult years. This guy is a winner. And I made a wise-crack (probably about myself) that did not laugh at ... he might have if we were just two friends talking, but it was very professional of him not to respond other than to say he wouldn't bite the hook (my words).

I've been with Karmeron for 3 weeks and I am so grateful we got matched together. I really feel heard and safe. I am confident in the tools he gives me and the work that he is doing with me. After our first visit, a few friends reminded me that if this isn't a good fit, to find someone else. But I was confident he was a good pair for me. As we continued to have several more sessions and back and forth messaging, I have not changed my opinion on him. I absolutely would recommend him and have already told friends about BetterHelp.

Thank you for your time and efforts to help me as I process things going on in my life

Kameron really can connect and help me see my blind spots. He is straight up and very gentle in making his points. He listens and laughs and has gotten to really know my issues and how they have been effecting my life, relationships, and other areas of my life. He has taught me many things and always has a way of educating me. Many thanks!

Kameron has done a great job helping me identify that I have OCD and ways to manage my thoughts in a way that helps me break the cycle of ruminating. I have already learned a lot about myself and my thought patterns in just a few months of working together once per week.

Top notch professional.

Very focused and precise in his communication and strategies for me to be better

He gave me the tools to cope with my anger! Would definitely recommend!

Kameron, is a great therapist. He understands my concerns and is a great active listener. He has given me some tips to improve my emotions, which have helped improve my relationships.

Kameron has helped me with complex PTSD from both childhood and TBI (head injury) plus grief. He’s been able to sit with all that I had to process and help me figure out what to work on and how to start feeling better. I think he is a very experienced therapist who has good insights. I would strongly recommend him for folks dealing with PTSD and grief

Kameron is an excellent therapist. I love how he can relate my experiences to everyday life and still give such a great clinical picture of my progress.

Kameron is very professional and understands my pain and anger

Kam has been very insightful in helping me process emotion and takes a very hands on approach. He makes you think about the deeper meaning and how to apply what has been taught.

Kameron is such a great therapist. I am lucky to get paired with him.

Kameron has been very supportive and helpful in this difficult time for me. He listened to what I had to say and had honest feedback for ways I can work out my problems. I’m thankful I was paired with such a great therapist.

I felt Kameron was responsive, insightful, and caring. I benefitted from working with him.

This man gave me the tools to resolve my anxiety and self hate in like 3 months. Incredible.

He’s the best

Helped me through some tough times. Great therapist, had a great analogy about snow globes!

Kameron has been very patient with me yet helps me see what I need to be working on to make progress towards the goal of having a better life after trauma. I appreciate his experience in handling people dealing with PTSD. He hasn’t tried to just talk me out of having my feelings like I felt other therapists seemed to do. I was not making progress with the therapist I saw before him, who helped with EMDR but didn’t seem to have many more tools for me after that. I also appreciate the platform and how it keeps me engaged on my therapy concepts.

Kameron has been absolutely amazing. Very helpful & easy to talk to. I was reluctant being he's male but I was comfort telling him anything.

Best of the best helped me alot .

Great support and insights into how to handle major PTSD and chronic stress.

Good listening and understands who I am and where I’m coming from

He challenges my thinking which helps me to heal and grow. He is also a great listener.

Kameron is amazing. Was unsure to have a gentleman but exactly what he is. Straight shooter but exactly what I need to heal. Amazing match

Thank you

I am appreciative of his non-judge mental approach. His listening abilities and his ability to help me see what I need to see to move forward.

I very much appreciate Kameron’s help in managing life post TBI. I wish I had help like this 10 years ago! So glad to have it now. Mahalo nui loa

Kameron is the best therapist I have ever had. His skills and techniques are unparalleled and he knows a lot more than he let's on. He's one of the most informed people on self help techniques, coping, spiritual + inner growth I have had the pleasure to meet. I am very lucky to have met and work with him

Kameron has been a great sounding board and very helpful in providing exercises to aid in contextual progression. I am very satisfied with the talk therapy over the last few months and how it has improved my well being.

Speaks my language.

I've had a couple therapists over the course of my life, both in person and virtual. Kameron is the best, and most down-to-earth, therapist I've had. He's helped me tremendously.

Fantastic. Exactly what I need.

I've had 4 therapists and Kameron is the first one I've felt I truly connect with. He has a knack for wording things into little snippets I can remember or ways that make it so obvious and easy to understand. Kameron is great and I'm very glad I've found him as my therapist, it's completely turned my life and perspective around

The BEST!

Kameron listens and process and makes sure to give valuable feedback. He has really made me think and look at different views on issues. I am grateful for his understanding and knowledge.

Straight forward great information help me express myself and face reality.

He understands complex PTSD and is giving me practical advice that’s helpful. So far so good

Kameron and I are a great match and I like the 50/50 dialog that occurs. I am grateful for Kameron

I’m very grateful for Kameron’s ability to listen. His understanding and openness to discuss vulnerable topics has given me a fresh understanding, and I feel so much better off now after our session. Really appreciate you.

Kameron is great at listening. Understands my goal and explains things to me in a easy to understand manner.

Thank you for always providing a safe and productive space for me to progress in my mental health.

Kameron has been very helpful in helping figure out and get to the source of my issues. He has done well listening to my concerns and giving me ideas and methods to address my issues. I would recommend him to others.

I’ve gotten so much out of just the few apts we have had and I truly appreciate that

Kam is a very smart and neutral person who will help you. I really appreciate him and everything he has done for me.

Excellent

Thank your for the tools you have given Ms so far,look forward for more sessions and learning more about me.
