Getting to know Madonna Tinorua
Aloha, I'm Madonna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor specializing in anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. I offer a supportive and empathetic space where we work together to navigate challenges, build coping strategies, and help you achieve a happier, balanced life. Let’s embark on this journey toward your well-being and growth together. This provider resides in Hawaii.
I earned my Master’s in Psychology from Chaminade University of Honolulu and hold a Bachelor’s from the University of Hawaii. My education deepened my understanding of human behavior and fueled my passion for mental health care.
My eclectic therapeutic approach combines various frameworks to offer personalized care. It centers on Person-Centered therapy, emphasizing empathy and active listening to create a safe space. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns and behaviors, providing practical strategies for anxiety and depression. I also use Motivational Interviewing to collaboratively foster motivation and facilitate change during life transitions or ambivalence.
I work with a diverse range of individuals, including adolescents, adults, and seniors. My expertise lies in addressing mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and guiding people through significant life transitions. My approach is adaptable and tailored to the unique needs and challenges of each age group and condition.
My communication style is warm, empathetic, and attentive. I create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can freely express your thoughts and emotions. I strive to foster a collaborative, trusting therapeutic relationship, ensuring you feel heard and understood.
My journey to becoming a therapist was inspired by a fascination with human behavior and a desire to help others. Growing up, I was the person friends and family turned to for support, sparking my interest in psychology and counseling.
