Artur Akkerman, LCSW

Welcome to Couples Therapy! Are you having the same argument over and over? Did your relationship experience betrayal and loss of trust? Or are you simply living as roommates or logistical partners who run a family, bussing kids across various sports/schools events, with little to no passion toward each other? I am here to help! I work with couples to identify the patterns that block connection and to rediscover the emotional bond that brought you two together. My goal is to create a calm, supportive space where both of you feel heard, respected, and understood. Change begins when we learn to understand - not fix - each other. For over 15 years, I have worked for the largest healthcare system in the United States, supporting individuals and couples, across diverse identities and lived experiences. I completed a 6-month didactic rotation in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. I have also earned a certification in Level 1 & 2 in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I believe LOVE unites us all. My role is to hold space, listen deeply, and support you in creating the relationship you long for. I’m licensed in California and Colorado, and offer evening sessions via video-telehealth for accessibility and ease. Call or email me to schedule your free 25-minute consultation.
