I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and co-creating an environment for you to share and explore your most authentic range of emotions, especially the ones you were taught to hide. I often work with trans and queer community and folks with marginalized relationship structures/embodiments. I use a contemporary relational psychoanalytic lens, and am informed by queer and post modern theory. My work primarily focuses on assisting folks exploring their self through our collective experience in the therapy room together and prioritizes working in depth through interpreting the unconscious.

Being where you are, can be one of the most confusing, absurd, devastating, and yet somehow radically affirmative places to be.How we experience, embody, and relate to these emotions can keep us feeling simultaneously stuck in one place, while still feeling completely lost. Olivia offers a space where we can be together in all of it – all of the thoughts, feelings, sensations, stories and lineages we all carry. Olivia strives to stay rooted in the relational work of healing justice, mindfulness, acceptance/commitment strategies, harm- reduction, and liberatory health. Olivia offers individual long and short term therapy for adults.

Being a teenager is hard. Parenting a teenager is hard. Combine both of these with mental health struggles, and it can feel impossible. I have been a therapist working with adolescents and their families for twenty years. My passion is supporting teens to navigate through this often terrifying and uncomfortable stage of life while finding their identity and teaching them how to cope with their mental health challenges in healthy ways. I also know first hand how difficult and emotionally draining parenting a teenager can be. Having a parent coach and liaison to help you muddle through this tough time can be very beneficial.

It’s difficult enough to figure out what you want. But saying it out loud to a partner? That can be even scarier. What if we don’t want the same things? Or, worse still, what if I hurt them? Does any of this sound familiar? Many people live in silence to avoid the pain of hurting another. But at some point that backs up on you. Therapy is your place to give voice to those feelings and decide what, if anything, you want to do with them..

To get to know oneself can be challenging, joyful, scary and even surprising. Yet the work pays off by enabling us to create rich, intentional and meaningful lives.
In our sessions, I will help you learn more about yourself by bringing thoughtful attention to the patterns of your life. Through an empathetic and curious approach, together we can create a space to explore and make meaningful change in your life. Our world keeps us so busy that we often don't have time to connect with ourselves.

I love working with people who are ready to do the work, even if they still have strong defenses or aren’t sure where to begin. My ideal clients are middle-aged adults navigating anxiety, identity shifts, and life transitions, and children recovering from trauma, including sexual abuse and sex trafficking. I especially connect with clients in the contemplation or action stage, who may not have all the answers but know something needs to shift. I value honesty, even when it’s messy, and offer a nonjudgmental space for healing. Clients come to explore their potential, find clarity, and build a more grounded, fulfilling life.

I enjoy supporting families facing parenting challenges, as well as the unique gifts and experiences of parenting children with special needs.

Additionally, I have significant experience working with individuals in the adoption triad, as well as those considering or in the midst of the adoption process, and following placement transition.

Sometimes in life we can feel like we have no control over what is happening, the paths our relationships are taking, or what the future might have in store for us. We can get to a place where we are stuck in a continuous cycle of negative thinking, gloomy feelings, and ineffective behaviors. I provide therapy to individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, life transitions, relationship changes/separation, substance use issues, stress management, academic challenges, sports/performance concerns, chronic illness, sexuality/gender identity issues, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia spectrum, and life balance.

My ideal client is high-functioning but emotionally exhausted—constantly giving to others while neglecting their own well-being. They struggle with chronic stress, anxiety, unprocessed trauma, and self-doubt, often feeling disconnected from their body and emotions. They need a safe, nonjudgmental space, tools for stress management, emotional regulation, and boundary-setting, and support in healing past wounds. Their goal is to move beyond survival mode, feel grounded, trust themselves, and create a life of balance and emotional freedom.
