ABOUT PŪLAMA COUNSELING
E Komo Mai
Sometimes life feels overwhelming.
That no matter what you try and where you turn you feel stuck. Looking around it may seem that everyone else has it all together, picture perfect, and successful. Maybe you have been asking, is it just me?
You are not alone.
We can all use a safe place to be heard; to feel understood; grieve if needed; and to heal, so that you can begin to discover what’s next for you.
Let's walk this path together.
I'm Joy Tanimura Winquist, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and owner of Pūlama Counseling. Pūlama means to care for or cherish. Pūlama Counseling was founded because each of us deserves compassion and care; to feel loved and valued. In order to live well we need to know our worth. Here at Pūlama, we support individuals, couples and families and help them to thrive in their relationships with their self, others, and the world. The office is located in the heart of Honolulu.
We specialize in helping individuals and families heal from trauma, child and adolescent counseling, and couples counseling. We use a variety of evidenced based approaches (EFT, Theraplay©, CBT) and other practices such as art and play that empower you towards healing, well-being, and joy.
We love what we do...especially to help others see the strength and truth inside of them. We look forward to meeting you!
CHILDREN & TEENS
Fostering Resilience, Connection, and Success
As parents and caregivers we want what is best for our children, but sometimes our children and teens experience challenges that often impact their behaviors, academics and relationships. At Pūlama, we are here to help your child peel back the layers of trauma and reconnect, so that they can flourish.
We were not made to figure things out alone. At Pūlama, we are here to walk the journey of healing with you so you can move towards well-being and joy.
