Connected to Oʻahu.
Connected to real life.
Counseling closer to where you live, learn and feel most yourself.
Born and raised on Oʻahu, Heather Faustin brings a local perspective and a practical, collaborative approach to counseling. The practice’s model connects that work with the everyday realities of reaching care.
School-based, community, in-home, mobile-office and telehealth settings offer different starting points for the conversation.

Care can have roots
without staying in one place.
Support where life is already happening.
Make a Difference uses converted Sprinter vans as counseling offices, creating private places for conversation closer to schools and communities. Mobile care sits alongside school-based, in-home and telehealth options.
Appointments and locations are arranged with the practice, with attention to privacy, access and the care setting that fits.

Relationships make
the context matter.
School, home and community are connected parts of daily life. The practice’s school-based model includes coordination with teachers and staff, while caregiver involvement and privacy are discussed as part of the care arrangement.
In the counseling conversation, values, motivation, strengths and meaningful goals help give the work a direction.
