Therapists in Hawaii

I am a Hawaii licensed clinical psychologist specializing in brief treatments for individuals who have anxiety and depression in the context of difficult life circumstances. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to improve coping and reduce emotional suffering. People coming to see me can expect a deep dive into their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In therapy, we will look at what your stressors are and how best you can cope and succeed given your individual circumstances. At the end of treatment, my goal is that each client has a set of skills that work for them when life throws a curveball.

Aloha :) Currently accepting new Kaiser Permanente and HMSA clients. I welcome individuals of all backgrounds and life experiences into this shared work. I provide professional therapeutic services to couples, families, individual adults, adolescents, and children addressing a range of clinical issues. I honor wherever you are on your journey and believe in cultivating space, and curiosity as we navigate this path together. I believe that understanding and compassion are vital for building trust, mutual respect, and openness, all of which are essential in forming a therapeutic relationship that can encourage change. ​

Cordero, and I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Psychotherapist with experience in working with a diversity of people.

You're the person who struggles with hustling for their worth. It shows in your impeccable work ethic or your perfectionistic ways or even your need to show up for others before you show up for yourself. You find yourself unable to relax, biting off more than you can chew, extremely overwhelmed, and unsure of how to slow down. It's hard to find balance in your life and not feel so guilty in the process. Does this sound familiar?

As a practitioner I am committed to assisting you to expand your potential to fulfill a life that you envision for yourself. At ExpandingHorizonsHawai'i (EHHi) we will co-create a practical and realistic life plan with achievable steps. Once your life begins to move in the direction that is closer to your desired life, instead of perpetuating in a downward spiral, you will have the opposite effect -- your positivity will expand and multiply. EHHi will also facilitate the success of your life plan by removing blocks of limited thinking and negative emotions through trauma release, visualization, and solution-focused approach.

Far too often, we suffer in silence. Things like depression, anxiety, and existential crises can be debilitating.

I serve as a therapist for our Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) Program. Ketamine journey sessions are paired with trauma healing therapy sessions. My approach to therapy is both eclectic and collaborative. I guide individuals to a place of connection and self-compassion by focusing on their inner strength.

Our past experiences, how they affect our world views, ourselves, and others are important. We all have good and bad experiences but sometimes the bad ones can leave us with emotional scars and painful memories. For example, we might find ourselves feeling anxious, depressed, angry, violent, passive, scared, intimidated, or overly pleasing. Some may turn to alcohol, other drugs, unhealthy coping strategies or avoid people and life altogether. You're not alone. Don't be ashamed, think you're different, or think that something's wrong with you. I'm here to lend a listening ear and psychologically assist you through those challenges.

Tired of feeling overwhelmed by chronic pain? By life? Despite visiting numerous doctors, you've found no real answers or relief. You're not alone. I've recovered from years of chronic pain, so I understand firsthand how debilitating it can be. Your pain is 100% real—it's not just "all in your head." Here's the thing: our bodies are deeply connected to our thoughts and emotions. If you're ready to address the root cause of your chronic symptoms, I can guide you towards relief and empowerment, offering strategies to relieve not only your pain but also to address issues like anxiety, depression, grief, and identity development.

Aloha, my name is Kalei Piena (Deborah) and I have been a therapist for several years with a private practice in Hilo, HI. I have a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and I use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach to therapy most of the time, but I also use a bit of other therapies to meet the needs of my client such as EMDR. I typically work with clients that are adults looking to change their behavior or understand why they react the ways they do. I try to create a safe nonjudgmental environment that feels warm and comfortable so the client may find it easier to talk.

Aloha, I began my journey as a psychotherapist in 2006 and have worked in several settings in California and on Kauai including with severely mentally ill adults in residential treatment, at-risk adolescents in group homes, in a small Jungian analytical practice, and with children and families as an intensive in-home therapist. As a psychotherapist, I aid in lessening the burdens brought forth through talk therapy and working to understand the roots of issues presented. I enjoy listening with the goal of understanding each individual that comes to see me for therapy, and being an ally in life to those who are suffering.
