Meaning behind the name

I chose the name Ahonui Counseling for my branding because of my roots. In the Hawaiian language, words have more than one simple translations. The word “Ahonui” (ah-who newee) means to give to you the strength to be patient with perseverance in the direction of your dreams and desires, plans and goals, wishes and healing. It is also the love you have for something that you decide it is important, valuable, good, and that nothing at all can replace it in your mind and in your heart.

I am compassionate and will be present for you, to hear your story, and work together to build better emotional wellness with yourself. I want my clients to know they are not alone in their journey and whatever is in their way. I am grateful for the opportunity to do this very important work. At Ahonui Counseling my goal is to provide you with all the guidance, healing, and encouragement necessary as I want you to have a more fulfilling & enjoyable life.
