Internal Family Systems Therapy
“The body always leads us home... if we can simply learn to trust sensation and stay with it long enough for it to reveal appropriate action, movement, insight, or feeling. ”
I am a level 1 trained Internal Family Systems therapist who specializes in working with women navigating the impacts of trauma, specifically, perfectionism, anxiety, and people pleasing.
Have you ever felt burdened or weighed down by the expectations you put on yourself and others? I can help.
IFS therapy is a transformative approach that views each of us as being made up of different “parts”, each with their own unique perspectives and feelings. In therapy I guide you in exploring these internal parts from a somatic lens, fostering self-awareness and compassion. I help you identify and understand yourself from the inside out. As you learn to nurture your inner world, you can release burdens, heal past wounds, and feel a deeper sense of self acceptance. Schedule a consultation call to learn more about IFS and what change it can bring to your life.
IFS Intensives
Looking for a shorter term commitment while still accessing a deep dive into healing?
Intensives offer a concentrated experience and may be right for you if you are feeling stuck and are curious about other modalities. An intensive is not a replacement for therapy but may be a positive addition to your current care plan or as a standalone option as they create a jumping off point for greater wellbeing and continued growth. Intensives will vary in length and cost but are formatted as one, two, and three day offerings. As a holistic practitioner Olivia weaves in practices including energy work, ritual, meditation, and movement into her IFS intensive offerings to support integration and embodiment.

Embodied Equine Sessions
Horses are sentient beings and offer us great insights if we are willing to listen. Embodied Equine sessions are experiential and prioritize the relationship you have with the horse and the environment, this allows space for an organic unfolding to happen. These sessions involve present moment awareness, connection, and are somatic (body based) in nature. Working with horses may be for you if you are seeking an alternative approach to healing or are looking to connect to nature and animals in a deeper way. These sessions are being offered for folks already working with a regular therapist who would like short term nervous system and embodiment support.
Energy Work
What is Reiki?
Reiki is Universal life force energy, an ancient Japanese healing system used to create wholeness in mind, body and spirit. It is a non- invasive healing energy. “Rei” meaning Universal and “ki”, or life force energy, moves through practitioner to client to encourage balance and harmony.
Olivia is Reiki III trained in the Usui Reiki lineage and offers Reiki to both horses and humans as a solo offering or in combination with IFS as an integrative approach.
Reiki is not a replacement for traditional medical or veterinary care, it is not a cure, and as a practitioner I do not diagnose or treat illnesses in humans or horses.
Reiki Client, MC
“I had my first ever reiki experience with Olivia and I have only good things to say! Olivia gave me a warm welcome when I arrived and walked me through what to expect and answered the couple questions I had. The actual experience was very calming and comforting to me and I noticed things I didn't expect! Olivia is a very calm presence and is also very organized and passionate about what she does which made for an overall great experience!
In To current and future clients,
I am honored to be a part of your healing path. I want you to know I am not here to fix, heal, or rescue you. Fixing assumes something is broken, healing assumes you are not whole as is, and rescuing assumes you do not have power. You are not broken, you hold the power and you are whole. My intention is to walk alongside you and support you in remembering and strengthening the internal resources that you already embody. I promise to keep those truths as an anchor during our time together.
Please reach out if you feel interested in any of the above
love,
