Therapists in Hawaii

I am both a counselor and life coach. My areas of specialty are relationship counseling, sacred sex education, trauma resolution, inner child work, spiritual mentoring, co-dependency recovery and Tantra education. I see it as my job to help you access your own inner guidance and your always available blueprint of well being. I've been working online with video for many years and find it just as effective as working in person. Feel free to call me for a free chat. I will be happy to answer your questions so you can get a feeling for how I work and see if we might be a good fit. I see my role as that of an assistant to the client, a wise, skilled, kind and compassionate support. I want to help you do the healing, opening, learning and awakening that you are already doing, as fast and as easy as possible, with as little suffering as possible. Well being and joy is in our original blueprint, it is natural that we seek -and find- happiness, vitality, balance and health. Often we can do it on our own, but sometimes we need a little support. As humans we are meant to get support and different, more expanded perspectives from others. That's how we learn, grow and thrive. Seeking input is a sign of maturity, not weakness. Feel free to get in touch and ask me any questions you have. Niyaso is the author of the audio program “Tantra, Sex for the Soul”, a best-seller on Audible, a comprehensive guide showing couples and singles how to make their sex life sacred. https://www.sacredloving.net phone 808 572-2234  

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 30 years of experience in the human services and mental health fields. He now lives on Oahu after living most of his life in Colorado. I have experience with adults, teens, and couples to improve their interpersonal relationships and create balance and stability. I can also work with teams corporate and industrial teams to increase emotional intelligence, cohesion & performance, and safety. I obtained his BSc of Psychology from Texas A&M University (’87) then obtained my Master of Clinical Psychology (’03) after working for a decade with adults with intellectual disabilities and adults with chronic mental illness. I continued his post-graduate studies through Capella University to help build knowledge and perspectives for his work in private practice where he specialized in rehabilitative counseling with court ordered clients dealing with family violence issues. I currently work full time as a contractor for the Departments of the Navy and Air Force at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam. Prior to this amazing opportunity, I owned Caledonia Counseling (2005-2022), based in the Denver area, after completing his graduate school and offered contract services to other agencies and community mental health providers. My practice focused on rehabilitative counseling with court-ordered clients trying to break the cycle of violence in the relationships and families. It is my mission in life to help make the world a more peaceful and safer place. On Valentine’s Day 2018, I founded a 501c3 nonprofit organization, STudents & Athletes for Healthy RelationshipS to make schools safer from teen dating violence, sexual assaults, and bullying. STAHRS.org is the mechanism he uses to reach high school and college students to help them to understand and develop healthy relationships while recognizing and avoiding abusive relationship patterns. I believe that “playing” is critical for stress management and he loves water, frozen or liquid. He loves skiing, snorkeling and scuba diving, sailing, and fishing as well as golf, camping, cooking, and travel.  

As a black, queer identifying woman, I know our healthcare experiences can often leave us feeling unheard, judged, and unseen. One of my pillars of care is creating a space where all clients feel heard and are respected as the expert of their personal experiences. I hope to attract clients who are searching for a provider who will incorporate their preferences, values, and needs, and create a partnership in which they are able to actively and collaboratively participate in their treatment plan.  

Aloha and welcome! You have taken a courageous next step in reaching out for help. It's not easy to talk to someone you don’t know about difficult and often private things about your life. Most clients say they feel nervous in the beginning of therapy. So, you want to find the right therapist for you. Good for you for ‘shopping around.’ Please see below more about me and how I work! But please know, our rapport is just as important as the training and experience I offer you. For therapy to be successful, you need to feel heard, understood, accepted by, and connected to your therapist. So, I also invite you to learn about my style and approach as well as my areas of expertise, and if you feel we would be a good fit, I would be very honored to join you on your path to wellness. Together, we’ll help you achieve your goals and find greater meaning, happiness, productivity, and fulfillment in your life!
