Life can be filled with challenging moments, situations and relationships. Such encounters can cause depression, anxiety and isolation. Life events may lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms that can evolve into self-destructive behaviors or relationships.

I am trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, and multiple behavioral therapies. I have years of experience as a therapist working in a renowned outpatient substance abuse and mental health facility. Therapy provides support, problem solving skills and coping strategies for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, codependency, childhood trauma, grief, stress management etc. We will gain an understanding of your barriers through various therapeutic techniques.

Hi! My name is Olivia, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background including people with trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, personality issues, women’s issues, and relationship problems. I make sure to implement a positive and holistic approach to therapy. I think it is important to find balance in your life, this can include strengthening the relationship with yourself and coping with external stressors. Depending on your needs, I implement approaches specifically tailored to you to help you achieve your goals and receive the best clinical care.
I have been a psychotherapist for over 20 years, working with individuals couples and families. I work with individuals and families dealing with a wide range of issues, and with both traditional and non traditional families. Who ever I am working with, I pay attention to the context of people's lives and the importance of the significant relationships in our lives. As a family and couple therapist I work with the ways our interaction patterns serve to promote healing, and the ways that those patterns help to maintain problems. In difficult times both individuals and families can become focused on their problems, and the more positive parts of our lives can become diminished. I think that one of the important tasks of therapy is to help people to focus on and utilize their strengths and resources
