Hello, my name is Gaia Akopian. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I provide psychotherapy to California residents via Telehealth. I work with adolescents, teens, children, families, as well adults. In my practice, my main areas of focus are anxiety, depression, life stressors, parenting, communication / relational issues, loss and grief, addictions, low self-esteem, domestic violence, and existential crisis. I practice Client Centered also known as Person-Centered approach to therapy, to help my clients feel better and achieve their goals in the therapeutic process.
Through my extensive experience working in city colleges and the school district, I've discovered my passion for working with teenagers and adolescents. It creates a successful dynamic, helping young individuals to navigate the complexity of their experience and achieve therapeutic goals.
My other focus is working with adults, or parents, have parenting challenges and stressors. I am a certified domestic violence advocate with DV work experience, I see clients affected by domestic violence abuse. I also specialize in loss and grief, addictions, and anxiety.

My communication style is nonjudgmental, calm, and trustworthy. I create a safe space for my clients, making them feel at ease and less anxious. I practice the Art of Active Listening, trying to tune in with the client's feelings and emotions. I try to create an atmosphere where clients feel safe and heard, where they know that the therapist is interested in their unique, very personal story.
