My Specialities

Olivia works with children, adolescents, and adults who may be navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity concerns, relationships, self-esteem, or difficult life experiences. She has a particular interest in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, including religious or spiritual trauma, medical trauma, and other experiences that may continue to affect their sense of self and well-being. Olivia is passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients as they navigate identity, relationships, self-acceptance, family dynamics, and the unique challenges they may experience.
