Getting to know Kit Hill

Aloha, my name is Kit Hill, and I am a licensed mental health counselor in Hawai‘i. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo. I work mostly online via telehealth, supporting older adolescents and adults seeking help with anger management, anxiety, and trauma. My focus is on empowering you and helping trauma survivors regain their sense of worth. I am experienced in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT). My approach My approach to therapy centers on “unconditional positive regard,” meaning I believe you can be successful. I use active listening, modeling, and awareness techniques to help you recognize what isn’t working for you—if you don’t already know, since sometimes we don’t. I teach breathing techniques and encourage the use of coping devices and mindfulness-based stress reduction strategies. I strive to empower you and reinforce positive, helpful behaviors. My focus Previously, I worked in a prison setting, helping men break down societal barriers, identify their emotions, and learn to interact positively with others. I also assist people in improving how they feel, managing their anger, and finding appropriate ways to communicate. I help individuals enhance their mental health, reduce anxiety, and address anger in a pro-social manner—it’s okay to be angry; it’s what you do with that anger that matters. My communication style I aim to create a safe environment where you can believe in yourself and be open to exploring and learning new skills. Clients have told me I am like a teacher, coach, and cheerleader all in one. Many describe me as compassionate, optimistic, and even funny—laughter can be a wonderful de-stressor that relaxes the body. Others see me as a friend who listens and makes them feel worthy.
