Aloha, my name is Celeste Leonani Sagarang. I am passionate about helping those who have been through abuse, trauma and loss. When storms of life hit, it can leave us feeling stressed, anxious and depressed. Even after the crisis and challenge passes, it takes time to heal and learn to breathe again. In Hawaiian, Kealohahou, means to renew ones Ha or breath, without breath we cannot live.

I am open, approachable, and committed to listening carefully to your experiences without judgment. I believe that each person carries a unique story, and my goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and encouraged as you navigate life’s challenges and opportunities for growth. Together, we can explore what is most important to you and work toward creating a life that feels meaningful, authentic, and aligned with your values.

My background includes earning a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, along with a lifelong appreciation for personal growth, nature, and the healing power of connection. Growing up learning to surf fostered a deep respect for the ocean and the lessons it offers about resilience, balance, and adapting to life's changing conditions. These experiences have shaped my belief in the importance of honoring each individual’s journey and recognizing that growth often comes through both challenge and reflection.

I currently accept individual adult clients only through Headway. I do not provide couples or family therapy through this platform at this time.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and LGBTQ+ clients seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and more connected relationships. My approach is warm, relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through safety, honesty, and meaningful connection.

I specialize in relationship therapy, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, attachment wounds, complex trauma, and psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I also support clients navigating life transitions, grief, shame, self-worth, communication challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.

My work draws from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems, somatic awareness, humanistic and existential therapy, and trauma-informed care. I help clients slow down, listen inward, understand their patterns, and develop more compassionate and empowered ways of relating.

As a queer-affirming therapist, I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients and relationships. I strive to create a space where clients can bring their full selves—without judgment—and explore healing in a way that honors their identities, histories, relationships, spirituality, and lived experience.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Honolulu, HI

Finding family therapists in Honolulu starts with understanding what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent concerns, blended family dynamics, caregiving stress, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to look at patterns between family members, rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, parent-child relationships, life transitions, or cultural and intergenerational concerns that match your needs.

In Honolulu and across Oahu, the right therapist also needs to fit your location, schedule, and preferred appointment format. In-person sessions may work well if you want a shared space outside the home, while virtual appointments can make it easier to include family members in different places. Family therapy may involve the full family, a few family members, or individual sessions at different points in care. Before booking, read therapist bios for details on session structure, availability, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Family therapy in Honolulu can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage in Honolulu, see which therapists are accepting new patients, and view upfront cost estimates. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
