My name is Richard “Todd” Rentz and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in individual, couples and family therapy, and maintaining a private practice in Honolulu, Hawaii.
By combining Jungian principles with an integrative systems approach of Intergenerational, Experiential and Post-Modern techniques, together, we will assess attachment history, life cycles, family of origin and patterns of development and extinction to co-create a specialized treatment plan that is unique to you, your partner and your family.
