Welcome! I’m Olivia and I’m glad you are here…

I am a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in Portland, Maine. My practice came to life with the intent to guide women toward feeling more resourced and centered within themselves. I consider myself to be a holistic provider as I offer a creative, multifaceted approach to support your unique needs. I am an Internal Family Systems therapist, reiki practitioner, and yoga teacher. My offerings come from a trauma informed approach and with the current state of the world in mind. It is my privilege to honor the whole you and support you in finding more clarity, curiosity and compassion. I love to support others in leaning into their expansiveness and find more embodiment. Somedays I’m in the office doing IFS and energy work and other days I’m at the farm offering experiential practices with horses. Know that wherever I am meeting you, it is important to me that I lead with integrity and honor my values as a practitioner to provide a safe and ethical space for you.

With gratitude, Olivia

“The wound is the place where the light enters you.”

I think most people would describe me as warm, grounded and intentional with a bit of spice. You can expect sessions with me to be compassionate and have humor throughout. I can be direct when needed but tend to be soft and empathetic. If you are seeking traditional talk therapy, this is not likely the place for you - but, I may be a good fit for you if you’ve had success with talk therapy in the past and you’d like to do deeper digging into your inner world. An important fact to know about me is that I love people and I have a lifelong love of supporting and uplifting others. I see my role as creating opportunities for folks to remember their center. I am a somatic practitioner and feel the body and nervous system must be included in making lasting change.

When I am not wearing my therapist hat I am a happily partnered dog mom, a pro-rest activist, lover of movement and being outdoors and a Maine native. Most of my free time is spent doting on my beloved horse Cannoli, and maxing out the storage on my phone with photos of him. I am a textbook water sign, cancer sun and moon, and I think this is what makes me great at what I do. I am a nurturer to my core. On a regular day you can find me at the beach, the barn, with friends or cozied up on my couch.
