By definition, the Hawaiian word olakino refers to the health and vitality of the body. Olakino Counseling was created with the vision to support individuals in achieving a healthy, well-balanced life that begins with targeting our emotional and mental health needs. Our emotional and mental health is key because when we neglect these needs our bodies cannot achieve wellness and thrive.
