Therapists in Pukalani, HI

Life doesn’t always go as planned, and let’s face it, it can be hard. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental place for you to explore ways to cope, adapt to change, challenge yourself, and work through emotional, career, and personal difficulties. My hope is for each client to gain a sense of empowerment, learn their abilities and work together to create a unique, individual plan for their personal success.

Aloha Ka Kou, My name is Monique Pualani Anuenue Gomes and I would be honored to provide you with "Culturally Sensitive" therapeutic services. Please allow me to lend my Kokua (help) and walk with you through this therapeutic journey. Being Native Hawaiian born & raised on Oahu island, have experience working with Hawaii's Unique Multicultural population. According to a recent study by Krogstad (2015) Hawaii is home to the Nation's Largest Multiracial American population. This means, 1 out of 4 individuals (24%) identify with multiracial or multicultural ancestry. Therefore, to provide "culturally sensitive" therapeutic services, is to, provide "competent" therapeutic services.

Hello, my name is Kristin Eslinger-Davis, I am a pre-licensed Marriage and Family Therapist located in Maui. What is it that brings you to search for a therapist? Are you interested in self-exploration and growth? Are you looking to recover from a difficult relationship in your life? I provide a safe nonjudgmental space to support. Our past experiences color our views of the world and ourselves, and play a big role in how we think and interact with others. It is also true that we are not helplessly stuck in this pattern but can choose to change.

We are a collective of comprehensively trained, client-centered, and value-focused therapists who have a sincere interest in helping people improve connection to themselves, their sexuality, and their relationships with others. Our values reflect who we are as individuals and as a collective, where inclusivity is paramount, diversity is celebrated, and our work considers the needs of those we serve.

Do you find yourself fighting back tears at work? Do you feel like you have to lie and pretend when people ask you how you're doing? Are you starting to question your decisions, maybe even losing trust in yourself? When you notice that "small" things are causing "overreactions," you may feel like there's something wrong with you, and spiral deeper into confusion and self-doubt. These feelings are often connected to older issues that we try to shut away and pretend aren't affecting us. We can usually get by using denial and avoidance for awhile, but it almost always catches up with us.

With over 20 years of experience helping people heal inclusively, I specialize in marital and premarital therapy, relationship issues, financial therapy, anxiety and ADHD: including overspending, adjustment to wealth, intercultural and interracial relationships, financial anxiety & avoidance. I work with an anti-oppressive and neurodivergent affirming stance meaning all people of all identities are welcome and accepted. I believe that by becoming conscious of the ways we defend against love and connection and finding more compassionate ways of relating to ourselves and others helps us to find what we truly want and need in life.

The team at Illuminate Wellness provides an integrative approach to healing with evidence-based treatment modalities that encourage self-nurturing, self-reliance, and finding the delicate balance between acceptance and change.

Do you struggle with low self-worth, addiction, or intrusive thoughts? EMDR allows you to live your life with more ease and regulation by processing trauma, reducing negative self-talk, and neutralizing cravings.

I utilize Hakomi style somatic interventions and IFS internal family systems/ego-state "parts work" and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy as needed. Throughout the healing process, you will notice increased self-trust and a release of old coping strategies. You deserve to live life fully, free from the distraction and pain of old wounds.

Pain is a part of life, but feeling like you're alone in your suffering shouldn't have to be. My goal is to make sure that no matter what you are going through, you do not feel alone in your struggle.
