"Mahina" is the Hawaiian word for "moon" 

In Hawaiian culture, we align ourselves with the cycles of the moon and we seek guidance by looking to the stars. 

Kaylee Torres created Mahina Therapy PLLC with the intention of decolonizing their therapy practice and rooting their work in indigenous teachings. Therapy is so often Western focused and steeped in the practices of white supremacy, so they aim to dismantle those systems in their work by honoring her culture and the cultures of their clients. 

As Mahina Therapy expands into a group practice, Kaylee hopes to honor the cultures of her clinicians as well and create an environment where everyone feels supported.
