01About Octavia
Octavia Fukino welcomes people who are carrying trauma, grief, anxiety, or relationship pain. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LPCC) practicing in California. Octavia writes plainly and offers steady support for those trying to rebuild after loss or betrayal.
She focuses on trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, depression, bipolar disorder, and stress. She also helps with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, and challenges around self-esteem and identity.
Background and approach
The work often starts with listening and making a clear plan together. Octavia uses attachment-based and client-centered ways of working to create a warm, respectful space. She also draws from cognitive behavioral strategies and trauma-focused methods to address upsetting thoughts and memories.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is part of her toolbox for processing traumatic memories when appropriate. Her background includes a bachelor’s degree from UCLA and a master’s in counseling psychology from Argosy University. She has about seven years of counseling experience, including both pre-license and post-licensure work.
Octavia previously worked in in-person independent practice and transitioned some care to telehealth. Sessions are offered in English and Romanian. People who choose to work with her can expect clear, direct talk, and practical steps to manage symptoms.
She aims to help clients find more safety in relationships and more ease in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and remote care
Octavia often uses attachment-based work that looks at how early relationships shape current ones; this approach can help people understand trust, closeness, and patterns that repeat in relationships. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which prioritizes the person's experience and builds a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change them.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Octavia will talk with clients about their goals, what feels most helpful, and any past experiences with therapy. Together they pick or blend approaches so the plan fits the person's needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy more manageable for busy lives. Video sessions let the therapist and client work face to face when that matters. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a break during the day. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to sustain therapy and adapt sessions to everyday schedules.
