Darlani Conley

Darlani is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adults navigating stress, anxiety, depression, grief and bereavement, relationship concerns, life transitions, and periods of significant emotional or situational change.

Her approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized. She integrates mindfulness-based, client-centered, strengths-based, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused approaches to help clients better understand their experiences, recognize their existing strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and move toward meaningful change.

Darlani earned her bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Religion from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa and her Master of Science degree in Counseling Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy, from Chaminade University of Honolulu.

Born and raised on Oʻahu, Darlani brings an appreciation for Hawaiʻi’s diverse cultures and the importance of connection, family, community, and place. She believes people are often more resilient than they realize and values helping clients reconnect with that resilience during difficult seasons of life.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I believe therapy should meet you where you are rather than expect you to fit into one particular model.

I draw from client-centered, strengths-based, solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, and mindfulness-informed approaches based on your needs and goals. Together, we can explore what is happening in your life, identify patterns and strengths, develop practical tools, and work toward changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to begin getting to know one another and for me to understand what brought you to therapy, what has been happening in your life, and what you hope might be different.

You do not need to arrive with everything figured out. We will move at a pace that feels comfortable, identify the concerns that are most important to you, and begin developing goals together. My aim is to create a supportive, respectful space where you feel heard while also leaving with greater clarity about where we can begin.
