Hello, I'm Olivia. Life's challenges don't define us, though they may test us. Sometimes, we're our harshest critics when faced with problems. But amidst personal or relational trials, they're just parts of a bigger picture. You don't have to navigate them alone. As your therapist, I'm here to support you in managing life's stressors and piecing together that bigger picture. My passion lies in fostering healthy relationships, whether with individuals, couples, or families.
Our initial session is an opportunity for introductions and an open discussion about what brings you to therapy. Together, we'll craft a treatment plan, creating a roadmap for our future sessions, ensuring we're aligned in our approach towards your goals and progress.
As your therapist, I will support you, advocate with you, and provide you with a safe space to figure out how to make sense from what you experienced.
I thrive in assisting individuals, couples, or families who are enthusiastic about personal growth and improvement. My approach resonates best with those eager to enhance their lives and relationships, seeking positive change and growth.
I've received specialized training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, particularly effective for individuals dealing with OCD or severe anxiety disorders. Through ERP, our focus will be on reducing rituals and managing these conditions effectively.
I've received specialized training in Attachment Based Family Therapy (ABFT), to help clients understand their attachment style with their family of origin and how it applies to their relationships with their partners or friends.
Lastly, I've received specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and have been using it for the last 7 years. I believe this modality aids individuals and grounds them. This will help individuals see the full pictures and gain coping skills along the way.
