Teletherapy for Palo Alto, CA

I entered the field of social work to help heal. At some point in life, everyone benefits from emotional support. My experience consists of helping individuals cope with issues of abuse, trauma, stressors, emotional challenges, or life transitions. Searching for emotional support or guidance can be an overwhelming, yet a courageous first step to the healing process. I have over 20 years of experience treating high-risk individuals. I held various positions in the public and nonprofit sectors that include schools, medical facilities, and community-based organizations.

Hello, my name is Dr. Jane Akponye! I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 129857), a certified Anger Management provider, an EQi-2.0 certified practitioner, and the author of “Children of Divorced Parents”. As a passionate person, I decided to help people find their passions and celebrate life through counseling. Due to perceived stigma, it’s often tough to decide whether to see a therapist when we are worried, stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed with life experiences. I ask you not to struggle through it alone but embrace help.

Are you struggling, feeling stuck, & overwhelmed? Feeling low, worrying & trying to find balance. Contemplating this is not the life you imagined for yourself. Between family obligations, work, relationship challenges, it is hard to carve out time for yourself. Let's find a way to manage this time when you're juggling many roles because surviving isn't enough. Let's find a way towards balance, drive & joy. Additionally, my focus includes Infertility & Reproductive Loss. My role is to support those who are struggling with the emotional & psychological toll of infertility treatment and other challenges of family building.

Accepting new clients! Scroll down to “my website” to book now. I work with couples, adults, teens, college students and kids.

I work with foster/adopted children and their families, as well as individuals and couples seeking counseling. I help families work through difficulties including depression, anxiety, trauma, school adjustment, attachment, and family conflict. My passion for working with families dates back to my undergraduate training in psychology at UCLA. I have worked extensivley with children, adolescents, and parents on overcoming obstacles related to cognitive, social and emotional needs. Upon special request, I provide in-home therapy services in the Bay Area.

I enjoy working with adults and families who desire change, but aren't sure how to make it happen. For some, it means a change in relationship dynamics or parenting style. For others, it means collaborating on complicated life issues, such as difficult teenagers, substance abuse, or co-parenting. If you are looking to leave a long marriage, I can help you navigate that process. I also enjoy working with individuals in their 20's and 30's trying to figure out this thing called adulting. I split my time between Steamboat Springs,CO and northern California, and am licensed to see clients in California, Colorado and Utah.

When we are exposed to trauma at an early age, it can seriously impact how we feel about ourselves and our relationships with others. Trauma can also profoundly affect whether we feel this is a safe world and can contribute to depression, anxiety, and relational/familial issues. My practice is from a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective with a non-judgmental framework. I aim to understand clients’ internal responses and to provide more options for emotional regulation and problem-solving.

I'm here to help you flourish as the fullest, most authentic version of yourself. Together we can explore your stuck and hurt places, hold them with compassion, and build capacity to handle feelings and life situations that currently feel baffling and overwhelming. Many of us have been taught to analyze and intellectualize our way through life's challenges, yet often our greatest wisdom is available not just from our minds but from our bodies and emotions. I can help you to connect and integrate these aspects of yourself to offer you deeper awareness of yourself, your relationships, and of new possibilities available to you.

I graduated from California Institute of Integral Studies with a Masters in Counseling Psychology, and have done extensive training in Person-Centered Expressive Arts. My clinical background includes focus on community based mental health, family and child therapy, grief and loss, and complex trauma. I currently work in private practice and also as a supervisor at a community based mental health agency.
