After 5 very successful and happy years in Bangkok running Bangkok Psych Associates George “Keoki" Ciervo
has decided now is the time to settle into a well earned retirement, moving up-country in Thailand. But Keoki, being the person
he is, cannot just stop, so he has decided to continue his therapy, but using modern technology. He now runs his practice
through the internet, using Skype, email, messaging and even by phone.
Keoki received a Masters in Education Counselling Psychology degree from Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA,
and a Bachelor of
Arts degree in Psychology also from Temple University. Initially, Keoki maintained a private practice in Pennsylvania
U.S.A. before practicing in Hawaii. During this time he worked with adults and couples before accepted a position
with The Department of Education Hawaii as a School Based Behavioural Health Therapist. In this capacity Keoki's
experience included, but was not limited to, working with students in elementary, middle, and high schools, their families,
and school staff, both teachers, and Administration. He realizes the effectiveness of, and consistently uses, Cognitive
Behavioural Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy.
Keoki has, and continues to; facilitate therapy assisting adults
and adolescents who exhibit symptoms indicating a mood disorder such as mood swings, depression, dysthymia, and anxiety disorders.
These can and do include generalized fear (phobia), specific fear, panic attacks, separation anxiety, social phobia, obsessive
compulsive disorder, substance-induced anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, conduct disorder, oppositional defiance, and disruptive behaviour
disorder. In addition, Keoki has over 30 years experience working with clients who are alcohol and/or drug abusers.
Keoki's desire is to help adults, adolescents, parents, and couples experience optimal joy and reach their
personal goals.
