You can’t stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf.”

-Jon Kabat-Zinn

Waves are powerful, magnificent, and beautiful. They have the power to wash away all the debris, to cleanse, to calm, to reset.

They can also hit you unexpectedly, knock you off your feet, and make you feel like you you are fighting just to breathe.

In Hawaii, where I have found much of my peace over the years, wave is translated as nalu.

Life isn’t always easy, but as Ben Platt sings, “Tough times don’t last; tough people do.” At Nalu Psychology, I work with clients to equip them with the tools they need to get through the tough times, to heal, grow, and thrive.
