Life has a way of throwing curveballs that can leave you feeling completely off balance. Maybe you're dealing with anxiety that makes your brain feel like it's running a marathon 24/7, or depression that's turned everything gray. Perhaps trauma from your past keeps showing up uninvited, or you're finally ready to address bipolar disorder you've been battling in silence. You might be navigating a major life change, figuring out ADHD as an adult, or just feeling like you're not living the life you actually want. You're looking for someone who gets it - who won't make you feel broken or like you need to perform being "fine."
I'm a Psychiatric NP who combines clinical expertise with genuine human connection. My anthropology background taught me that everyone's story matters. I specialize in thoughtful medication management and work especially well with young adults, BIPOC folks, LGBTQIA2S+ individuals, and anyone who's felt like they don't fit in traditional psychiatric spaces.
I won't pretend healing is all sunshine and breakthrough moments - sometimes it's messy and hard. But I believe it can happen where you can be real, appropriate humor is welcome, and you're treated as a whole person, not just a collection of symptoms. If you want someone who takes mental health seriously but doesn't take herself too seriously, let's connect!

Olivia has this energy that is truly endearing and compelling. She connects with you with authenticity, brightness, and a real kindness. Her patients so appreciate how she makes them feel at ease - and how she introduces new medicines and ideas!

Per clients, working with Olivia feels like having a trusted guide. Her ability to create truly safe therapeutic spaces is extraordinary. Clients who've been hurt before open up to her - that's the power of genuine trust and cultural humility in practice.

Olivia represents the best of evidence-based practice. Her psychopharmacology knowledge is impressive, but it's how she integrates medication with therapy that sets her apart. She respects the client's whole story and just deeply cares about her clients.
