Psychotherapy...
...is a process of openly and honestly exploring how one is functioning in the world. It is an opportunity to sensitively examine what has become troubling in one’s life, and to find realistic ways to achieve a greater sense of well-being. This exploration can be challenging, but very rewarding. Psychotherapy often leads to greater insight, emotional relief, constructive behavioral change, and enhanced interpersonal relationships. Individual, couple, and family therapy is offered.
Client Testimonial:
“We have known Franco for five years. During that time he recreated the bond and relationship between our young daughter and us. After not being able to see her for more than two years it was a very difficult task - as you can ask any professional. His patience and perseverance paid off in the end - creating a new and improved bond. He is great with children as well as parents alike. I would, and do, highly recommend him for anyone looking for a professional and personal therapist. He definitely goes above and beyond the call of duty.” K. T.
“I came to Hawaii looking for answers and to do a bit of soul searching. Coupled with that I was tossed into a very different set of circumstances with unique individuals. I was disturbed by what I saw and experienced until I was introduced to Dr. Franco Acquaro and gained clarity. No one should walk this existence alone even if we came alone. Thank you for perspective.” N.H.
