Great to meet you!

Hi - it's so nice to have you here! My name is Olivia, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor at Atarah Wellness Collective. Honoring your role as the expert in your own life, I'm here to gently guide you in nurturing self-discovery, restoring balance, and reclaiming your well-being. Healing begins when we have a space to express every part of ourselves, without carrying the weight of what we've held inside. I hold genuine gratitude for those who have trusted me with their hearts and invited me to walk alongside them on this scared journey. I would be honored to walk with you, too.

My approach to therapy

My approach is rooted in a holistic, integrative philosophy. Together, we may draw from cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, dialectical behavioral techniques, self-compassion exercises, or acceptance and commitment therapy to honor your story and strengths you already carry.

What you can expect from me

In our first session together, we will get to know one another and explore your goals of therapy. To create a space where healing can happen, I believe in building the therapeutic relationship first to gain a sense of trust and comfort.
