Olivia Fadul

Hi, I’m Olivia Fadul, MS, LPCC (NM), CPC (NV), a neuro-affirming and disability-affirming counselor providing online therapy for adults in New Mexico and Nevada. I have close to two decades of experience.

I work with anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, grief, trauma, burnout, relationship concerns, and life transitions. I bring particular attention to the ways disability, chronic illness, identity, and access shape everyday life.

I am committed to an accessible, culturally responsive therapy space where you do not have to minimize important parts of yourself to be understood. My approach is relational, humanistic, and strengths-based, blending practical tools with respect for your values, culture, and lived experience.

Many of my clients are thoughtful, caring people who are used to holding a lot, yet feel overwhelmed, uncertain about what comes next, or longing for greater clarity. Whether you are adjusting to a diagnosis, grieving a loss, navigating relationship or career changes, or moving through the world as neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, Deaf/Hard of Hearing, disabled, or chronically ill, you are welcome here.

Accessibility is part of care, not an afterthought. I do not assume that one way of communicating, processing, or participating works for everyone. I invite clients to share what helps them engage in therapy; when feasible, we can consider options such as captioning or written communication, clear agendas, flexible pacing, breaks, and other communication or processing supports.

You do not need to have the “right” words or everything figured out before starting therapy. You do not have to mask, minimize, or translate important parts of yourself before you can be supported. Together, we will make space for your story, understand patterns that may be contributing to feeling stuck, and identify manageable steps toward clarity, self-trust, and connection.

My approach is relational, humanistic, and strengths-based—grounded in warmth, curiosity, and practical support. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I tailor our work to your goals, culture, relationships, health, access needs, and lived experience.

I integrate approaches such as CBT, ACT, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy to help clients build insight, coping skills, self-compassion, and meaningful change. We may explore patterns, clarify values and boundaries, process difficult experiences, and practice new ways of responding to stress.

I view people in context. Your challenges are not separate from the systems, relationships, culture, health experiences, and barriers that shape your life.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable. Our first session will be a low-pressure conversation about what brought you in, what feels hardest right now, and what you hope could be different.

You do not need a perfect explanation or a plan. I will meet you with respect, collaboration, and care as we decide what support would be most helpful and move at a pace that feels manageable.
