Akemi Weddington, LMFT

Akemi Weddington, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
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. I focus on your strengths and hopes while respecting you as a whole human being, no matter how you are now. I create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to share whatever you bring. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from Palo Alto University and have experience working with adults, the elderly, adolescents, children, couples, and families on a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, mood swings, anger issues, self-harm, relationship problems, LGBTQ matters, grief, and life coaching. I provide individual, couple, and family therapy. My therapeutic modalities are customized to tune in to each person, based on person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused therapy, and somatic approaches, combined with mindfulness as my foundation. I also use narrative therapy, expressive art, emotionally focused therapy, and emotional freedom techniques.
