Our Team

With more than a decade of experience in psychiatry, trauma care, and intensive medical settings, Krystina brings a rare blend of clinical insight and human connection to her work as a psychiatric provider. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Boston College and went on to complete her Master of Science in Nursing at Regis College, becoming a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Throughout her career, she has supported patients through some of the most physically and emotionally demanding moments of their lives.

While Krystina’s experience in surgical intensive care and inpatient psychiatry has deepened her ability to understand both the physical and emotional complexities her patients face, it’s her calm presence, attentive listening, and genuine empathy that leave a lasting impression.

Krystina is especially skilled in helping individuals navigate mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, anxiety, and identity-related stress, with an approach that is integrative, evidence-based, and deeply personalized. She prioritizes creating a safe, respectful space where people feel seen and supported — whether they’re facing a long-term mental health challenge or a period of transition and overwhelm.

In her role within our Weight + Wellness Program, Krystina helps bridge the critical connection between emotional health and physical transformation. She understands that meaningful change requires more than medication: it requires care that honors the mind-body connection, supports emotional healing, and empowers patients to reclaim their confidence from the inside out.

Ashley’s path to becoming a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner was driven by a heartfelt commitment to her Maui community. Recognizing the limited availability of advanced educational programs and mental health resources on the island, she pursued her education elsewhere-- earning her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas, and her Master’s in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from Regis College in Weston, Massachusetts.
From the beginning, Ashley’s goal was clear: to return home equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to expand access to mental health care in the community that raised her. With her family rooted here, her work is guided by a deep sense of responsibility to the place and people she loves.
Ashley’s clinical experience spans high-acuity hospital settings and diverse patient populations across all age groups. Her approach to mental health care is grounded in trust, connection, and treating the whole person. She combines evidence-based medication management with integrative therapeutic techniques, always striving to create a space where patients feel seen, heard, and genuinely supported throughout every step of their journey.
