About Lawrence Toutant-Acosta

Lawrence Toutant-Acosta is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Hawaii who offers a personalized approach to therapy that centers on each person's unique needs and preferences. With a collaborative, strengths-based orientation, he supports clients in recognizing their own expertise while providing guidance and validation as they explore change. He emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as a meaningful, interpersonal space - a professional connection that can reflect real-life patterns and open opportunities for insight and growth.

Lawrence uses a supportive, non-directive stance that honors clients' pace and priorities, and he draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core framework to help clients see links among thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. That foundation is combined with techniques from Interpersonal Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and trauma-informed approaches to address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, self-esteem challenges, and transitions in life.

His style is intentionally adaptable and evolving, blending evidence-informed methods to match what each person needs in the moment. As an LCSW - a licensed clinical social worker trained to provide mental health services - he aims to empower clients through practical skills, reflective exploration, and a steady therapeutic presence.
