Nothing to fix-
Everything to uncover.
Come back to who you are beneath all the things you've had to become.
Olivia Spencer
transformative counseling & therapeutics
The natural order has been disturbed
We all feel it, but it's the sensitive ones- the dreamers and intuitives, empaths and creatives- who really take the hit.
The future has an ancient voice
Our traumas and pains are trying to guide us away from the current patterns of dominance, back to the innate balance known to our ancestors.
This is the way of wholeness= of the Four Bodies= re-integrating your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical selves back into vital fullness.

Meet Olivia
As a single mom navigating one trauma after another, I became very familiar with just how bad so much popular guidance is:
• ‘Hacking’ your nervous system sounds great until you realize it’s only trying to keep you safe.
• ‘Positivity’ seems like an obviously good idea until you see that your own ‘negativity’ is just grief and fear.
​
• 'You're your own worst enemy'. Tell me you've never been married to a narcissist without telling me.....
In truth, the more I listened to these, the more it started to remind me of the slogans my narcissistic ex would use to keep me ‘in line’.
Daughters of Daughters
Despite my training in herbalism and women's traditional health- or maybe because of it- my own experiences fostered a calling to create a more practical kind of support for people navigating deep distress and disorientation.
​
Something I've learned again and again is that each wound is an invitation to connect more deeply to a wild, defiant self - a self many of us haven't seen since around kindergarten.
​
Combining my training in ancient modalities with my studies and personal experience in trauma and the nervous system has shown me that our best selves have been with us all along, just buried under the wounds and coping mechanisms this life piles on. Likewise, the best healing wisdom has always been with us, just buried under fancy, shiny (but frequently counterproductive) modern concepts.
As daughters of daughters, our wounds are an invitation to restore balance to ourselves that will ripple out to the world.​​​​​​​
Olivia offered me the perfect middle ground – a supportive space, where I could just talk, as well as a guiding hand for the more metaphysical aspects of the human experience.

What Clients Say
Before I found Olivia, I had done some "clinical" talk therapy, which was foundationally helpful but still limited. I realized that I was looking for something more spiritually-minded, human-centric, and attuned to the natural order of the world.
Olivia offered me the perfect middle ground – a supportive space, where I could just talk, as well as a guiding hand for the more metaphysical aspects of the human experience.
Her alternative approaches to working through issues were refreshing and would stay with me for weeks after our sessions. She gave me tools I could use in my daily life, particularly in relation to staying grounded and connected. She has a knack for visualization and meditation techniques that most standard therapists wouldn't even bother with, and I found these to be hugely helpful.
Moreover, Olivia was instrumental in helping me work through an incredibly stressful period of my life that descended on me unexpectedly and she continues to be instrumental in supporting my deeper, shadowed elements (childhood wounding, womb health, motherhood, etc.).
I feel that no matter the topic, she always has a wise perspective up her sleeve that reminds me of my humanness, my uniqueness. As a bonus, she exudes a comforting, motherly energy, while staying easygoing and cheerful – and we always have a good laugh or two... :) Thank you Olivia! <3

Olivia worked with my teen daughter and held space for her when she felt so far from me. It was so important and so soul opening to have someone in a state of calm, with so much motherly love, to hear and hold my daughter when felt like I couldn't reach her.
You have saved a life, Olivia, and I am eternally grateful.

I am so grateful for Olivia's unique offerings and the way she holds space for us to remember.
She makes the simple and accessible, profound and healing.​

If you're on the fence, reach out immediately! Toss aside what you believe about traditional therapies and embrace all the different modalities that Olivia uses.
​
Working with her, I know how it feels to have someone on my side no matter what. She always validates my feelings, reminding me that they have a purpose, and helping me look into what that purpose might be.
I felt like our sessions were a safe space right off the bat. I also appreciate how she doesn't refrain from sharing her opinions and giving advice like traditional therapists do. She uses her life experience to support our sessions and that's been invaluable!

Thank you for bringing your work to the world!
​
So much of what you shared with my daughter is aligned with how we live AND hearing it from you, and her having her own experience with you was powerful for her.
​
Your energy and the tone was also aligned for her and how she was able to integrate it.
I am grateful for YOU!

• Jules D •
When the world feels overwhelming, I am beyond grateful that you're in it!
Your vision of the world coupled with your life experience feels like an ancient wisdom that brings me back to the roots I had lost of my life journey.
Your teachings have truly helped me find balance and calm that I utilize now in my daily life.

Olivia gets what it's like to try to co-parent with a counter-parenting ex: the self-doubt, the many concerns for my child. Very very few therapists really understand what that's like and even fewer can give real, practical advice on how to navigate the impossible situations that come up. Olivia can.
​
She helps me understand his behavior and then make choices that prioritize the well-being of my kid and me. And keep our mother-child relationship strong.
​
And then she'll give you a recipe for reducing inflammation or ask you what your cycle's been like! We usually talk about relationships, parenting, emotional health- but she always reminds me that those influence my physical health and vice versa.

I spent over a year researching and reaching out to mental health professionals in search of someone to talk with to work through some of the stuff I’m overcoming. I kept hitting road blocks and I should have taken them as a sign.
​
I realized that my values didn’t align with Western Medicine anyway and the answer I was seeking was in my insta feed the whole time!
I’ve been working with Olivia for over a season and it's been so helpful for better understanding myself and the relationships around me. I started with one of her classes where she demonstrated how much knowledge she has to share and her private sessions provide an opportunity to dive deep into the murky waters of the self.
She’s a safe harbor, I’m grateful that she has crossed my path and serves as my teacher during this phase of life.
