Hello, my name is Olivia (she/her). I am a Clinical Psychologist and I help women and LGBTIQA+ people with anxiety to understand and improve their mental health and relationships.
​
The majority of my practice focuses on:
-
emotion regulation
-
identity development
My clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, but after working together, they typically feel more self-compassionate and confident to face life's challenges.
More about my work
People with Anxiety
This includes the spectrum of anxiety from mild worry to clinically significant anxiety. I consider anxiety as an umbrella term, including: stress, general anxiety, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, attachment issues, trauma responses, a part of ADHD, and more.
​
Women
I work with people of all genders, but my intersectional feminist values stand out in my work. I acknowledge the mental health field is patriarchal and am sensitive and intentional in my work to empower women.
​
LGBTIQA+ People
I use this acronym to speak about Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer, Asexual, Pansexual, Brotherboys and Sistergirls, Non-Binary and Gender Non-Conforming, and other identities. All of these are important, no matter where their letter falls.

For those who love to nerd out on therapy
I take an integrative approach to therapy and tailor interventions to each unique individual, often drawing from the following evidence-based modalities:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)​​
-
Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
-
Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS)​ principles
-
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy​ principles
​
My work is informed by interpersonal neurobiology (which combines attachment theory, polyvagal theory and mindfulness principles) and procedural justice theory. I am trauma-informed, gender-affirming, and neuro-affirming.​
