Getting to know Kori Kiesel-Weatherford

Hi there, I'm Kori! Aloha, my name is Kori Kiesel-Weatherford. I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for over 16 years and a Social Worker for 22 years. I am also a Board Certified Diplomate of Clinical Social Work (BCD). I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Hawai‘i. I approach therapy as a collaborative effort to move you toward health and meet your mental health goals. I have focused my clinical practice on the treatment of military trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and transitional life stressors, including relationship and employment challenges. This provider resides in Hawaii. My approach I focus primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Our perspective and approach to life are rooted in our thoughts and beliefs. At times, we may have a history of skewed beliefs and patterns of functioning that affect our emotions and how we view our lives, relationships, and challenges. My focus I have spent the last decade focusing primarily on military trauma related to deployments and military service. I have also specialized in treating anxiety, depression, and other life stressors such as relationships, work stress, and family dynamics. My communication style I create a safe and accepting environment so you feel comfortable. It is an honor to share this journey to health with you. I believe in bringing humor, real-life experience, and practical skills to this partnership. My journey to therapy I grew up in Hawaii in a culture rooted in caring for others. I knew early on that I wanted to dedicate my life to serving others. I appreciate the gravity of walking alongside someone through some of life’s hardest experiences with no judgment. It is incredibly rewarding to witness a patient experience emotional release from experiences that no longer serve them. My goals for you Setting goals and expectations is essential in therapy. Together, we will develop goals based on your desired outcomes.
