Hina Mauka Main Office

One of the defining features of Hina Mauka's recovery center is its ability to walk with someone through every stage of the process. Medical detox gives people a supervised, clinically managed starting point. From there, residential treatment provides the intensive, structured environment that early recovery often demands — with a separate co-occurring program track for those navigating mental health conditions alongside substance use.

As stability builds, the transition to an Intensive Outpatient Program or standard outpatient program allows people to practice recovery in real-world settings while maintaining clinical support. Aftercare planning and case management mean that discharge from a higher level of care is never the end of the relationship. This kind of connected continuum is exactly what the Sober Nation community looks for when evaluating a long-term recovery partner rather than a single-episode treatment stay.

Hina Mauka's residential programming includes a dedicated Co-Occurring Program track — meaning the center is specifically equipped to treat people whose substance use is entangled with a mental health condition. This is not an add-on or referral arrangement; it is a distinct program track within the residential setting. The clinical team is led by Toshiyuki Shibata, MD, a board-certified psychiatrist serving as Chief Medical Officer, bringing psychiatric expertise directly into the treatment environment.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the confirmed clinical method used across programming. For individuals who have struggled to find treatment that addresses both sides of a dual diagnosis, Hina Mauka's structure offers an integrated approach that does not require choosing between mental health care and addiction treatment.

Hina Mauka accepts a broad range of individuals into its programs. Court-ordered participants are welcomed, and the center provides services specifically accessible to people who are deaf or hard of hearing — a meaningful distinction in a field where language and communication access often go unaddressed. Adult and adolescent services are maintained as separate programs, each with dedicated clinical leadership: William Mousser, MA, CSAPA, CSAC oversees adult services, while Colleen Fox, PhD, CSAC, CPS, CCS leads adolescent programming.

On the financial side, Hina Mauka accepts Medicaid, private insurance, and self-pay arrangements — ensuring that cost is not an automatic barrier to entering treatment. The center's administrative offices are open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM. Families and individuals can reach the team directly at (808) 236-2600 or by email at [email protected] to discuss program options and the next steps toward enrollment.

Long-term recovery rarely happens in isolation, and Hina Mauka's programming reflects that reality. The center offers a formal family program as part of its support services — creating space for the people closest to someone in treatment to engage with the recovery process rather than wait on the outside. Case management services provide practical coordination across the recovery continuum, helping individuals navigate housing, services, and transitions without losing momentum.

Aftercare planning is built into the model rather than tacked on at discharge. For the Sober Nation community — people evaluating treatment with an eye toward sustainable, community-supported recovery — these elements signal that Hina Mauka is designed with the long arc of sobriety in mind, not just the acute phase of getting stable.
