You aren't living
the life you deserve
At the deepest levels, you know this- always have. But the options provided keep you moving further from what you need, rather than closer.
As a renegade grief and trauma counselor, I combine modern modalities with an ancient framework for a totally different experience for my clients.
To work with me, just send me an email here and we'll go from there. (If you're seeing this, it means I have space available)
• Nervous system under siege
• The constant ache of grief
• Rollercoastering emotions or dull numbness
• Physical symptoms reflecting the unease of your mind and spirit
• Spiritual homelessness
• Difficulty accessing states of safety, creativity, and/or play
These are just a few of the ways that paradigms of narcissism- from relationships to whole societies- impair your wholeness and vitality.
I'm here to show you the way through- from what modern society has done to you to who you were born to be.

• Emotion Detox •
​​
Why detox? Because stored emotions can disrupt the body and mind much like toxins.
​
It's not that emotions are toxic- not at all- but when we choke them down instead of processing them and letting them move through and out of our bodies, they aggregate and impede the healthy flow of energy and lymph.
This contributes to mental/ emotional symptoms like stress, anxiety, exhaustion, depression, overwhelm, insomnia, and confusion and/or physical symptoms like energy depletion, hormone imbalances, menstrual issues, and/or a haywire immune system result.
Tension inhibits circulation (lymph and energy, as well as blood)—> sluggish circulation creates stagnation—> stagnation allows things to fester and create illness.
​
Working with both the body and mind- in an atmosphere of practiced empathy and non-judgment- we’ll approach your lingering feelings from different angles until they feel safe to come out. Whenever possible, you’ll also learn techniques for doing this on your own.
​
​​​​​​​​​​
• People-Pleaser Reset •
​
People-pleasing is a deeply ingrained pattern of self-abandonment where a person will habitually put others’ comfort and needs before their own. Usually, this is conditioned into people from a young age and becomes habitual because in childhood and youth it can actually be effective in securing the needed love and affection.
​
These behavior patterns are rooted in the foundations of self and not easy to interrupt- you stop doing one thing, but find that the underlying cause just redirects in different ways. The People-Pleaser Reset goes beyond superficial ‘symptoms’ to the formative belief systems that created them.
While people-pleasing can’t be ‘cured’ in 90 minutes, you can gain insights into your self and learn tools that will allow you to continue this work in between sessions- with each one, stepping further into the wholeness and authenticity that were hidden from you.
A good framework for this session is to focus on either a specific recurring habit (ie agreeing to things you don't want to do) or a situation where you consistently find yourself feeling compromised (ie meetings with your boss). This can also be combined with the next option for more empowered communication- we'll pack as much into 90 minutes as possible!
​​​​​​​
• Communication/ Relationship Consultation •
​
Communication is how we broadcast our self-respect (or lack of) in every interaction we have, whether in person or through text or email. I'm usually a proponent of creating holistic change from the bottom up- the opposite of faking it til you make it- but communication is an area where working on more superficial aspects can create a domino effect of change throughout your life.
​
People tend to fluctuate between submissive or dominating communication. The middle ground of balanced self-worth, neither over-accommodating nor intimidating is rarely modeled for us in life or media.
​
​​​​​​​​​​
• Initial Consult •
​
While the sessions above are tailored to specific outcomes, there's a lot of life that doesn't fit into those options. For more generalized support around trauma, the nervous system, depletion, relationships, balance, and parenting- or if you're drawn to my approach, but aren't sure where to start- this is you best bet.
​
In an all-around consult, the plan is looser and centered on determining your most immediate needs. My main objective is getting to know you, using my trained eye to look for energy leaks and core beliefs that could be hindering you, and formulating how I can be most effective in your life.
​​​​​​​​​​​
In a world contorted by narcissistic 'values' and traps, my mission is to help you become so at ease with your body, mind, and spirit- so radically yourself- that you'll repel people and situations that expect you to compromise your authenticity.
They might even flee in terror.
In this new (to you) paradigm, your self-respect will guide every interaction, your trauma will be a voice of wisdom rather than a cruel master, and you'll find the world of possibility that unfolds when you start accepting things as they are.
This is the life you deserve.
Hi. I'm Olivia.
Analytical mystic. Fringe-dweller. Abuse survivor. Mom.
I'm not a light-worker or a positive-mindset zealot. I'm also not a licensed therapist (if that puts me too far out of your comfort zone, it's better you know up front : ).
I've been a student of human nature and Nature nature for as long as I can remember. Learning this way isn't as efficient as getting a psych degree, but it's also imparted a deeper, more well-rounded understanding of How To Be than you can get within the system.
My 10+ years with a malignant narcissist (and still 'co-parenting'!! YAY😑) not only inspired me to learn everything I could about trauma, the nervous system, the mechanics of power, and victimhood, but also provided an unforgettable initiation into what it actually is to be broken and put yourself back together, piece by excruciating piece.
I was guided on my path by ancient models of wholeness- ways of being that, unlike the system we've been raised in, weren't hostile to the full, raw, messy, wild spectrum of what being human is meant to be like.
Now I use the same ancient perspective to help my clients discover and move towards the definition of wholeness that is authentic to them.
Coming Soon!

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

• Tanya V •
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.
​
​
• Martha Z•
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!

• Christy V •
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.

• Amee F •
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.

• Marcy M •
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.
