Stephanie Kim
LSW
Hi there, I’m Stephanie
I am a Licensed Social Worker with a Masters degree in Social Work from Dominican University where I focused on health and wellbeing. I have over ten years experience working in law enforcement and social service agencies where I found a passion for mental health to make a meaningful impact on individuals and communities. I have experience in working with diverse clients from adolescence to older adults. I believe that each and every client is unique and I will find the right tools to support and guide them to be the best version of themselves.
I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals on their journey to mental wellness and personal growth. My goal as your therapist is to create a non-judgemental environment where you feel safe and heard. Whatever challenges you are currently facing, I can provide support and guide you every step of the way. I take a client-centered, strengths-based approach to empower each individual to heal and grow. At Living Pono, my top priority is to help you live a more fulfilled, balanced, and connected life!

THE LIVING PONO APPROACH
in life, Pono stands for righteousness and balance
In Hawaiian, if a person is living Pono, it means that they have struck the right balance within themselves, with other things, places, and the people in their lives.
We take that same approach when helping you to grow.
