Staci Hanashiro

Aloha, and mahalo for taking this step to mālama yourself. My name is Staci Hanashiro, local girl, born and raised on O'ahu. I received my Bachelors in Social Work (SW) from UH at Mānoa, and Masters in SW from Boston University. My experience in the helping field, and my treatment areas include working with 'ohana engaged in the CWS system, the HIV/AIDS community, maternal and child health, grief and loss, parenting stress, and working with our littlest keiki and their caregivers.

I understand that sharing your mo’olelo (story) can be a daunting and vulnerable experience. This is why I approach our work together with the utmost humility, recognizing that being entrusted with your story is a profound privilege. My commitment is to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel comfortable expressing your thoughts and emotions and reflecting on your experiences.

In our sessions, my goal is to help you reflect on your experiences and connect with your existing strengths. Together, we will navigate the complexities of your journey, honoring your unique perspective and finding ways to empower you. By fostering a space of trust and respect, we can explore and develop new skills that enhance your well-being and resilience.
