Diana Olivares

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned my Master Degree from the University of Northern Colorado.

Having immigrated from Mexico at a young age and later identifying as Lesbian brought many challenges of acculturation and familial norms and expectations that I had to overcome. These experiences opened a deep understanding of the need for and importance of being heard, understood, and welcomed within our most cherished communities. As a result, I was inspired to work with the most vulnerable and diverse groups in our community including children, adolescents, minorities, immigrants and LGTBQIA+ individuals and support their social-emotional growth and to assist in their self-discovery to gain a clearer sense of purpose and direction in life.

I am a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate and graduate from the University of Northern Colorado’s Clinical Mental Health Master Program. I also earned an MA in Secondary Education from the University of Arizona in my hometown of Tucson, Arizona. My person-centered approach to therapy provides client’s a safe empathetic space to recognize and draw from their strengths, meet their individual goals, heal from trauma, and live their lives to their fullest potential.

I enjoy working with populations of all ages and cultural backgrounds in addition to children and adolescents. I look forward to being part of your journey.
