Therapists in Kawaihae, HI
Living on the island of Hawaii is like living in paradise so many cannot understand how anyone who lives there can be depressed. What they do not understand is that depression is not a state of mind, it is an illness and it has nothing to do with where you live. But, there are some amazing therapists in Kawaihae who can help.
Kawaihae is a small town with a big harbor that provides access to shipping, military, and fuel for those all over the country. They also have a historic site called Pu?ukohol? Heiau, which was built by King Kamehameha I in 1791. If you are depressed, contact one of the therapists in Kawaihae for treatment so you can get back to enjoying the island.

Aloha & welcome to my page. Do you feel like you have lost your way – that nothing feels quite right – or that the past seems to be repeating itself? My view is that we all begin from a place of wholeness, but we sometimes lose belief in ourselves along the way. I have the depth of professional and life experience to see and work with you as a unique individual. Let me be a support and guide as you navigate the journey to your true potential. My expertise includes a broad range of issues including traumas, anxiety, emotional difficulties, relationships, and divorce related issues. My education includes training in eastern and western philosophies. In my work I use an integrative therapeutic approach and I weave together ancient with modern, east and west for personalized healing of heart-mind-soul. I am licensed in several states; Hawaii, California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado & Utah. I hold a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology and a master's degree in Marriage, Family & Child Counseling. Start today to begin your journey to a better you. * please note my availability varies from week to week. Therefore, what is displayed on the Better Help site calendar is not accurate. I do have much more availability throughout the week than what is displayed. However, since I have varying availability there was not an easy way to indicate that on the Better Help calendar. So, just check with me : )
