Liya Akoury

Aviva Psychology Services is a team of licensed psychologists with the highest level of training in the field. We welcome all diverse populations and utilize empirically supported treatments to deliver individual, group, and family therapy, career counseling, and relationship and couples counseling for adults. We believe that humans are both hurt and healed in relationships, that we all experience hardship, and that we also all have the inherent ability to heal and change. Each day offers an opportunity to start anew, and we offer a space to learn and grow through collaborative, compassionate therapeutic relationships. Our integrated approach to therapy is both theory and research driven. It relies heavily on forming an honest and trusting therapeutic relationship and draws upon a combination of relational, insight-oriented, and skill-based/action-oriented therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). We examine social, cultural, and systemic influences in all our therapy spaces. We believe that a combination of insight and skill building tailored to the unique needs of each client provides a strong foundation for effective therapy.
