Akemi Horii

Parts-work meets trauma treatment: heal from anxiety & trauma and regain peace with IFS-EMDR. My name is Akemi, psychotherapist in Ohio. I have deep appreciation for and training in IFS and EMDR, and also incorporate CBT and mindfulness. Born in Japan, I’ve lived and worked in the US, UK, and the Middle East. My former training in art history, archaeology, ancient languages shaped my passion for human experiences. I've transitioned to help people like you reconnect with your parts, embrace who you are, and step forward with purpose.

Clients describe my style as compassionate, multicultural, and empowering.

You deserve to feel safe, seen, and supported. In our sessions, we’ll move gently at your pace—tending to the parts of you that carry pain or fear. Together, we’ll create space for calm, self-acceptance, and the quiet confidence that comes from truly feeling whole again. I would be honored to be part of your life journey. I look forward to hearing from you.
