Kahua is happy to introduce another great clinician at our practice! Andrea Plasko is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Hawai'i and New York. With over 10 years of experience working in the field, Andrea brings many strengths to the team. She is fluent in English and Spanish, and is also learning French. Her willingness to provide a nurturing and compassionate environment for her clients is one of many reasons we are excited to have Andrea a part of Kahua!

Today is the anniversary of the day Queen Lili’uokalani, the last reigning monarch of the Kingdom of Hawai’i, was illegally overthrown. As we remember the unsettling events that took place 129 years ago, we also honor Queen Lili’uokalani and her persistent efforts for Hawaiian sovereignty. Today, Hawaiians continue to work steadfast in fighting against the colonization of our islands.

Happy birthday Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.!

We love this quote from Dr. King that we believe applies to life and the process of healing. Things might not always be easy or feel like they’re flowing, but keep moving forward, and honor your journey.

Welcome Shantel to Kahua’s growing team! We place a high value in nurturing our keiki and believe starting therapy young can be so beneficial. One of Shantel’s great contributions to the team is her ability to incorporate play therapy into her sessions and create a space even your little ones would feel comfortable in. She is a licensed mental health counselor and a licensed marriage and family therapist with many years working for the DOE in Hawai’i. We’re delighted to have Shantel work with children and adults alike to build their foundation for a healthy mind.

Through imaginative play, clinicians are able to work with children in an environment that feels safe and comfortable. Children learn healthy ways to express themselves, work on problem-solving, and can gain insight into handling inner conflicts. If your child is displaying any concerning behaviors, or if they’re asking for help themselves, attending therapy where they can use their imagination is a great first step!

Everyone deserves to be heard. It is this belief that makes Makana such a wonderful therapist!

Makana is among one of our newest additions to Kahua Counseling! She was born and raised here in Hawaii and her approach to the therapeutic process embodies aloha. Makana is a licensed mental health counselor accepting new clients for individual therapy. We’re thrilled to have her at Kahua and are confident that her warm, collaborative process will be a great foundation for her clients to thrive.

Aloha Makahiki Hou!

We’ve been MIA from Instagram for far too long now with lots of behind the scene stuff for Kahua Counseling. But as we start to find our footing heading into the new year, we are so very much looking forward to rejoining this amazing community of mental health advocates! We can’t wait to share with you all the changes Kahua has made since last summer, and to resume content casting more awareness on mental health and perpetuating Hawaiian culture within the mental health world! May 2022 bring us all the joy and peace our soul desires.

I like to believe that most providers come into the field of therapy hoping to create a space where they can help as many people as possible.

As a therapist, helping to provide relief while someone is going through tough times is the primary goal, and is very rewarding work.

As a Native Hawaiian owned business, my goal is to perpetuate the Hawaiian culture, as I continue to learn and deepen my respect for it as well. For me, kōkua in this aspect means to advocate for indigenous matters and speak up in situations of appropriation and harm to the culture.

Speaking out on things that are problematic, socially or culturally, can be healing in a similar way that speaking about your emotions and feelings can be in the therapy room. Despite difficulties and push back, pushing through is all a part of the process.

Just a reminder that

You matter.
You are important.
You are not alone.

It takes a great deal of strength to take care of your mental health, and it is so worth it.

Happy Asian American Pacific Islander heritage month! The term AAPI includes an exceptionally diverse group of cultures, traditions, and history. During this month of May, in the midst of an increasing number of anti-Asian hate crimes, it was important for us to remember and learn about those who have enriched our community with immeasurable impact, knowledge, and respect. It is without a doubt that the AAPI community and our history is at the heart of American history. And in every sense of the word, AAPI contributions have made America a better country. As we celebrate and honor AAPI cultures, we urge you to also advocate for their equity and safety.

We’ve moved to a new office! Kahua Counseling is now located in the Pearl City Business Plaza. We’re so happy to be more centrally located in hopes of being more accessible to all those seeking therapy. We look forward to providing the best therapeutic care by continuing to grow as a practice. Thank you for following along on our journey! 💚
