Aloha Uhane Healing Center - About Us
LeAnn Neilson, PMHNP-BC
LeAnn Neilson is a Board Certified, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner that resides here in Hawai'i, on the big island of Moku O' Keawe. She originally began her career as a licensed massage therapist and holistic alternative therapy specialist before earning her nursing degree in 2012. LeAnn Neilson earned her master’s and post master’s certificate in psychiatric mental health from Walden University while working in psychiatric nursing providing crisis intervention, inpatient and outpatient care. She is a licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner at Aloha Integrative Mental Health.
During her time as a hospice nurse here in Hawai'i for our kupuna (elders), LeAnn realized how difficult it could be for patients to receive mental health treatment when needed, and seeks to fill this gap through telehealth psychiatry for people in the Hawaiian islands.
She looks forward to providing exceptional mental health support & treatment in a convenient and comfortable setting through telehealth services.
LeAnn Neilson provides a holistic form of care with a focus on balancing mental, physical, and spiritual health through the use of therapy & variety of healing arts: nutrition, lifestyle changes, boundary setting, and supportive medication.
She also provides medical business consulting services for up-start & established private practices at Aloha Business Development Systems.
In her downtime, she enjoys being with her family and friends, playing with her many pets, and working on creating a loving, sustainable, off-grid home.
Aloha Uhane Healing Center - More About Us
Our Mission
ALOHA: "Alo" means ‘face to face’ and "Ha" means ‘breath of life'.
UHANE: means the 'Soul' or 'Spirit' of a person.
The trinity of the Hawaiian culture is "Uhane Hemolele", the Holy Spirit. Hawaiians believe that we have two souls each, one lives within the body, the other lives on eternally, either visible or invisible, but has no more of a connection with the person than their own shadow.
Our goal is to help you reconnect with your eternal spirit, so that you can then share it with the rest of the world! We promise to be there for you every step of your journey. We seek to help you discover your strengths, address your challenges & find peace in the learning process.
