Christina Kuba, LCSW — Therapist in Hawaii

Hi there, I'm Christina!

Therapy can offer a safe space to share your thoughts and feelings and help you to gain self-awareness and facilitate personal growth. It can also help you develop healthy strategies to manage life challenges. I am here to support you through this journey and help you reach your goals.

My focus

I work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Whether you need support building self-esteem, developing coping skills, enhancing communication, or improving relationships, I am here to help you.

My approach

I use client-centered and cognitive behavioral therapy to help you identify and change negative or distorted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. Other therapeutic approaches may be used, as I will tailor treatment to meet your needs and goals.

My communication style

I create a warm and supportive environment that allows you to share openly without judgment. My communication style involves being clear, honest, and respectful.

My journey to mental healthcare

I always enjoyed helping others, so it was a natural fit for me to start my career in social work. At times, it was overwhelming to see others struggling with adversity and not having any support system. This showed me how essential therapy could be for someone going through challenging times.

My goals for you

We will work together to identify and set goals that address the challenges you are going through. Throughout therapy, we can adjust your plans as you continue to grow and gain new insights.

Our first session

Our first session will be getting to know each other and finding out what brings you into therapy. I understand that this may be a new experience for you, and you may feel nervous. It is okay, as we are learning together, and I will be with you through this process.
