Aloha! My name is Dawn Martin and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Substance Abuse Counselor here in Hawai'i. I work mostly with those needing support around trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and life stage transition. I would define my therapy approach to be a client-centered holistic approach, incorporating psychedelic-assisted healing and integration as a tool for transformation.
My theory of counseling is an integrative approach. There are various ways of implementing diverse theories and techniques from which people can benefit from. I focus on the delivery of therapy in creative ways. The basis of my counseling theory is a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, dialectic behavior of mindfulness, somatic work, and a family systems approach. I most often will incorporate internal family systems and positive psychology in most sessions.
