Aloha, I’m Olivia—a Licenses Mental Health Counselor, military spouse, and yogi—devoted to helping others grow, heal, and thrive. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, & families navigating a wide range of mental health needs. My approach is holistic—I consider how your mind, body, relationships, and environment all play a role in your well-being. As someone who values the whole person, I integrate evidence-based approaches with holistic practices that support emotional, mental, and physical wellness. My style is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on creating a trusting space centered around you. In our work together, you can expect to gain insight, build resilience, and develop practical tools to move through life’s challenges.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Everyone comes to therapy for different reasons. In our first session, we’ll take time to explore what brings you in, discuss your goals and expectations, and begin building a connection. We’ll also talk about your comfort level with therapy and what you’re hoping to get out of the process. I’ll tailor our work together to fit your unique needs, experiences, and pace. This session is about getting to know each other and setting the foundation for meaningful, collaborative work ahead.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is my open-minded, compassionate, and relatable nature. I bring a strong sense of empathy to my work, not only through training but through lived experience. I chose this field because I know firsthand what it’s like to need support and to not always have someone to turn to. My experiences shaped my deep understanding of pain, resilience, and the importance of feeling seen and heard. Because of that, I approach therapy with authenticity and a nonjudgmental presence. Clients often tell me they feel safe and understood, which allows us to build strong therapeutic alliances. I meet people where they are, and I respect each person's pace, cultural background, and unique strengths. I am also passionate about accessibility and equity in mental health care. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to heal and grow, regardless of their circumstances. This commitment fuels my work every day and informs my advocacy for inclusive, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive care.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
With a background in child development and education, I specialized in supporting children, adolescents, and parents. Within the counseling field, I enjoy working with adults, especially in supporting them through life transitions, personal growth, relationship challenges, and perinatal care.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Trauma Informed Care
I approach therapy through a trauma-informed lens, recognizing that many individuals—whether they label it as trauma or not—have experienced events that deeply impact their emotional, physical, and psychological well-being. My training in trauma-informed care allows me to create a therapeutic environment that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. I am actively expanding my knowledge of specific trauma interventions, including somatic approaches, parts work, and evidence-based modalities like EMDR and trauma-focused CBT. In practice, this means I meet each client with compassion and curiosity, rather than judgment, and work collaboratively to help them understand how trauma affects the brain, body, and behavior.
Integrative
My approach to therapy is integrative, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities rather than relying on a single framework. Over the years, I’ve found that no one method fits every client or every situation. Instead, I tailor my approach to meet each individual’s unique needs, preferences, and goals.
Psychoeducation
Psychoeducation is a key intervention I use to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and physiological responses. By exploring how the brain and nervous system influence behavior and emotional regulation, clients gain insight into their experiences. I’ve found that when clients understand what’s happening internally, they feel more empowered to make meaningful changes. Psychoeducation provides a foundation for self-awareness and skill-building, which supports long-term growth and well-being.
Multicultural
I recognize that every client brings a unique cultural background that shapes their values, communication styles, beliefs, and experiences with mental health. My experience with multicultural treatment includes working with clients from diverse racial, ethnic, religious, gender, and socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as those navigating multiple intersecting identities.
Mind-body approach
I use the mind-body approach as a core element of my practice, recognizing the deep connection between emotional, physical, and mental health. This approach emphasizes that psychological well-being is not separate from the body, and effective treatment must engage both. My experience includes integrating techniques such as mindfulness, breathwork, somatic awareness, and guided imagery, as well as psychoeducation around the physiological impact of stress, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. I also practice from a holistic perspective, meaning I consider the full spectrum of a client’s well-being—emotional, physical, social, and sometimes spiritual. I explore factors such as sleep, nutrition, movement, relationships, and cultural identity, and collaborate with clients to create treatment goals that reflect balance across these domains. Ultimately, the mind-body and holistic approach helps clients reconnect with themselves in a more integrated way, build resilience, and deepen their capacity for self-awareness and self-regulation.
