Whole-Person Healing Empowering Your Journey to Wellness
We provide psychotherapy rooted in a systemic, trauma-informed and person-centered approach that is built upon the premise that your symptoms do not define you. Instead you can learn to see your symptoms as waypoints guiding you to the underlying wounds you have been carrying, wounds that are calling out to be honored, addressed, and relieved. The lens of trauma helps you to understand the ‘why’ behind your symptoms, negative beliefs, and the areas of your life where you keep getting stuck, and utilizing evidenced-based trauma treatments (such as EMDR and Internal Family Systems) is an integral part of the care we provide. A systemic therapist understands that we ‘can not separate the part from the whole’, that understanding you means understanding the systems of which you are a part - your relationships, your family, your community, and your culture.
Individual & group counseling
Whole Person Healing
Holistic healing means addressing the mind, body, and spirit - the therapy doesn’t stop once the session ends, true change means addressing all the areas of your life that are out of balance. We integrate nature-based therapy and practices that help you to more deeply connect - to yourself, to the people in your life, to your spirit, and to this island, from mauka to makai, honoring what is all around us.
Group workshops and events
Kauhale Healing is about restoring our sense of ‘home’ to include community. Now more than ever our wellbeing depends on feeling connected to those around us, and having a felt understanding that we are not alone on this journey. We will offer events and workshops that range from therapy groups, to psycho-education workshops on a variety of topics, to experiential groups out in nature. The goal is to create something bigger than ourselves, to foster a sense of community and together build the village.
Deep dives and intensive paths
Are you ready to really make some change in your life? To no longer scratch at the surface but instead, dig within and emerge with the gift of transformation? Research and experience have shown that, in many cases, more frequent and intensive therapy is needed and beneficial if you want to get the most out of your treatment. For this reason, the following paths have been crafted out of years of clinical experience and can be tailored to your needs:
8-week trauma treatment path - twice weekly trauma therapy utilizing EMDR, IFS, and somatic therapies, with additional nature-based resourcing sessions, focusing on a balance between trauma processing and gentle strengthening and support, providing you with relief and equipping you with tools to use in day to day life.
Addiction & codependency path - not an IOP program, but also not standard outpatient - a multi-modality program aimed at strengthening your recovery and setting you up for success. We will address all the areas of your life contributing to your addiction and/or codependency issues, integrating trauma treatment, experiential therapies, step-work, and holistic care.
Transpersonal treatment path - this path has a greater emphasis on the spiritual and transpersonal work, integrating modalities that go beyond traditional talk therapy such as shamanic journeying, meditation, somatic therapies, nature based therapies, and creative expression, deepening your relationship to self and spirit.
