Hi there, I'm Akemi!

Challenging life experiences may lead us to disconnect from who we truly are and to forget how precious life is. My goal as a therapist is to help you reconnect with your true self and find peace and harmony in your life.

My focus

I focus on your strengths and hopes while respecting you as a whole human being. I work with adults, elders, adolescents, children, couples, and families on anxiety, depression, trauma, mood swings, anger issues, self-harm, relational problems, LGBTQ concerns, grief, and life transitions.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is customized to tune in to each person, drawing from person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and somatic therapy combined with mindfulness as my foundation. I utilize narrative therapy, Internal Family System, emotionally focused therapy, and Brainspotting to support your healing.
