Healing takes time. 💜 It's not a straight line, and sometimes we can feel stuck. The good news is our therapists our here to listen, even if it takes a long time. At its best, therapy is a journey of transformation, not a quick fix.

The first one to three sessions are usually about getting comfortable with your therapist, sharing your story, and setting goals together. The deeper work builds from there, at your own pace.

If you’re ready to start your therapy journey or keep going, our team at Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaii is here to support you. We accept insurance and offer in-person and telehealth sessions. Visit the link in our bio to learn more.

Will AI replace your therapist? Hopefully not. Research has consistently shown that the most important factor for healing in therapy is the relationship one has with their counselor. Not the technique, not the style, the relationship.

An AI therapist might be able to emulate therapeutic techniques perfectly, but it can never offer the genuine connection that a human can.

Perhaps it would be worth looking at why so many people are turning to AI for emotional support in the first place. For one thing, it’s convenient. And for another, it’s cheap, if not free.

It’s understandable why folks might utilize this resource when their needs feel immediate. But we hope you’ll take the extra step to reach out to us and set up an appointment with one of our counselors today.

We offer telehealth and fast scheduling (convenience) and we work with most insurance carriers (affordability). If you’re working through anxiety, stress, or a big life change, please don’t hesitate to reach out (link in bio).

Myth: “If I’m taking medication, I don’t need therapy.”

Fact: Medication can ease symptoms and help lay the groundwork for healing, but talk therapy helps you build coping skills, work through what’s underneath, and form habits that last. For many people, the two work best together, each supporting the other.

Every person’s care looks different, so decisions about medication are best made by consulting your prescriber. But our reccomendation is that you utilize mental health counseling to maximize your recovery.

If you're ready to take the next step, book an appointment today at samaritancounselingcenterhawaii.org (link in bio). We accept insurance and offer telehealth and in-person visits.

Every $175 you give funds a turning point — a grieving parent finding strength for their kids, anxious teenager learning they're not alone, someone finally setting down a weight they've carried too long.

Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaii is raising $100,000 for our Client Assistance Fund, so cost is never the reason someone in our community goes without mental health care.

Last year, this fund made a difference for 70–90% of our clients. That's hundreds of people who got help because someone like you decided they mattered.

Give today to help Hawai'i communities heal. Link in bio. 💜

Ever heard of functional depression? Most people haven't! You might think that depression has a certain 'look' - being sad, unable to get out of bed, and walking around with a raincloud over your head ☔️ But for many people, depression is invisible.

One of our Licensed Mental Health Counselors, Joseph Hakim, explains how some people might not meet the 'typical idea' of depression, but may still need help.

If you're struggling with some of these symptoms, reach out to us at Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaii. We have multiple licensed counselors available for sessions and we work with your insurance to help make therapy accessible. You can sign up at the link in our bio or call us at (808) 545-2740 🌱

When someone finally works up the courage to ask for help, cost shouldn’t be the reason they're turned away. 💜

At Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaiʻi, we believe every person in our community deserves access to compassionate, professional mental health care — regardless of what they can afford.

That's why we're asking for your help raising $100,000 for our Client Assistance Fund, which keeps therapy within reach for individuals and families facing grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and more.

In 2023, 70–90% of our clients relied on this fund to get care. Just $175 sponsors a full session for someone in need.

Help us reach our goal of $100,000, and help make sure that in Hawaiʻi, mental health care is a right — not a privilege. Visit the link in our bio and click "Donate" to give today. 🤍

Mahalo for your compassion and generosity.

🌺 Support Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaiʻi through Foodland's Give Aloha!

Every September, Foodland customers can donate at checkout — and Foodland and its partners help match those gifts to Hawaiʻi nonprofits. Here's how you can make your grocery trip go further for local mental health care:

📅 When to Give
September 1–30

🔢 Our Organization Code
77125 — use this at checkout to direct your donation to SCCH

💰 Donation Limits
Up to $249 per organization, per Maikaʻi cardholder

🤝 How the Match Works
Foodland pools a matching fund (at least $300,000) and distributes it proportionately among participating nonprofits based on total donations received — so every gift helps grow our share.

Ways to Give at Checkout
1️⃣ Cash or Card — Tell your cashier you'd like to donate to code 77125. Be sure to show your Maikaʻi card or enter your phone number so your gift gets matched.
2️⃣ Maikaʻi Points — Every 250 points = a $5 donation to the matching fund.
3️⃣ Round Up — Round your total to the nearest dollar or drop spare change in the coin canisters.

📸 Keep your receipt! Foodland doesn't share donor names with us directly — send us a photo of your receipt if you'd like a formal acknowledgment of your tax-deductible gift.

Your support helps make counseling accessible to more people across Hawaiʻi. Mahalo for being part of our community. 💜

Anxiety isn't just "worrying too much." For a lot of people, it shows up as racing thoughts, a tight chest, trouble sleeping, avoiding things that used to feel easy, or snapping at people you love. 💜

None of that means something is wrong with you — it just means you may need some support.

Counseling gives you real, evidence-based tools to calm your nervous system, quiet the "what ifs," and think more clearly.

Samaritan Counseling Center Hawaii has been walking alongside people in our community for over 30 years. We accept insurance and have spaces available for new clients. Learn more at the link in bio.
