Malie Carvalho, LCSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)

Aloha, my name is Malie Carvalho, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting individuals through their healing journeys with care, understanding, and cultural sensitivity. Born and raised in Hawaiʻi, I am part Native Hawaiian and have lived here my entire life. I believe strongly that local people deserve someone from their own community — someone who understands how we grew up, the importance of ‘ohana, and the unique challenges that come from our shared histories.

I understand the cultural foundations, family dynamics, and generational traumas that shape many of us here in Hawaiʻi, from our Native Hawaiian roots to our immigrant ancestors from the plantation era. This personal knowledge allows me to create a deeper, more authentic connection with those I serve.

I work with adults aged 18 to 60, tailoring each therapeutic experience to meet your unique needs and goals. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and collaborative — honoring your story while helping you build the tools you need for resilience and change.
