Hello, I’m Carolyn J. O. Hanohano, a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. With over two decades of experience in nursing, my mission is to provide compassionate and effective mental health care.

My journey in healthcare began in the military, where I served in the United States Naval Reserves as a Hospital Corpsman and Certified Surgical Technologist. This experience cultivated my skills in patient care, team coordination, and surgical assistance.

In my daily practice, I prioritize clear communication and patient-centered care. I’m here to listen, understand your needs, and support your mental well-being. Let’s work together on your journey to better health.
