Dr. Hana Yin, LMFT
About me
As a licensed therapist serving Hawaii, I bring 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating a compassionate, inclusive space where clients from diverse backgrounds can explore personal growth and healing.
I specialize in addressing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, LGBTQ+ experiences, grief, intimacy challenges, and social dynamics. My approach is deeply attuned to individual needs, whether you're navigating workplace stress, relationship transitions, identity exploration, or personal transformation.
With expertise in multicultural counseling, I honor each client's unique journey. I'm committed to supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes—from social anxiety and isolation to life purpose exploration and interpersonal communication. My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, self-understanding, and meaningful personal development.
I welcome clients from all walks of life and strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can authentically engage with your experiences and goals. Together, we'll work collaboratively to develop strategies that promote healing, resilience, and personal growth.

Hana is a very warm, cheerful, and welcoming doctor and human. No matter how challenging her personal life or previous sessions were, she gives me the full attention and comfortable atmosphere I need during our time. As a gay Asian man, she understands my childhood upbringing and current life challenges from a cultural standpoint and offers advice on how I can navigate and improve my life beyond those experiences.
