I am a clinical psychologist, licensed since 1986. My husband and I moved to Portland recently, and are enjoying the energy and cultural richness of the city. I enjoy traveling, yoga, jogging, and of course visiting our grandchildren. I particularly enjoy working with people who feel "stuck" and are interested in developing insight into the roots of the issues which keep them from moving forward in their lives; however, I appreciate the unique needs of each individual and am flexible in meeting their needs.

Hi! I’m glad you’re here. My name is Olivia, although most people call me Liv. While my title is a therapist, I see my role as a co-collaborator, and it’s an honor. In my work I strive to provide support and problem solve in a trauma-informed and strengths-based way. Central to my approach is a focus on self-empowerment, autonomy, and self-direction. What that means is, I believe that we are all experts in our own lives and the therapeutic process should collaboratively strengthen and bring to the surface the skills and inner strength to harness our innate wisdom and strength.

Life is full of change and I am passionate about working with women throughout various difficult life transitions including, puberty, going to college, starting a new job/career, pregnancy, postpartum anxiety/depression, adjustment to parenthood and grief and loss. Anxiety, depression or stress and overwhelm can creep up during these moments and we will work together to get you the tools you need to cope and thrive.

I support families, couples, and individuals. Whatever the problem, challenge, trauma or pain, the power to change exists within you and your family. I believe that an effective therapist's job is to support a "shift," not to create it for you. Together, we can make progress toward your goals and desires. I am also trained and certified in hypnotherapy.

I work with adults, to support challenges including life transitions, parenting, identity formation, and trauma work. I believe that we each have a story with a unique perspective and voice. I enjoy working with people as they come back to a place of joy and fulfillment after an experience that has left them emotionally tired.

I’m a psychotherapist who helps people impacted by traumatic stress. People who need a partner to help calibrate the weight of their worries. Exhausted and overwhelmed we feel so alone … industrialized cultural vacuums increase fear and shame. It can feel like no one could possibly untangle your predicament. We speak up even less or maybe become frantic with demands and urges to soothe. We doubt self even more. We get stuck on “what do I need to do” to make this stop? Counseling can lighten the burden of difficult experiences. Partnering on communication, resourcing, and education can provide some early relief.

I specialize in issues important to teenagers and young adults/families, including issues related to family dynamics, depression, anxiety, bipolar/schizophrenia, substance abuse concerns, transracial adoptions, grief, LGBTQ dynamics, racial identity, gender transitioning process, and abandonment trauma.

Our environment influences how we see ourselves in the world; it shapes our internal narratives and our relationship with ourselves and others. As a BIPoC, immigrant therapist, it is my honor and duty to provide a safe space for BIPoC folx and immigrants and seek to help each person see their own power and heal their wounds. I seek to help individuals who may be working on healing from radicalized trauma and various forms internalized oppression in order to become the person they were meant to be. Understanding our own history and connection to our ancestors helps us to understand who we are today and helps us heal our Soul.

You make it through the day to day but inside you’re fearful, anxious or depressed. You’re bottling things up and lashing out at seemingly insignificant things later. The demands of your job & personal life are starting to feel like too much to juggle even though you’ve always been good at juggling it all. It doesn’t seem like something you can talk about. Everyone thinks you have it all together and besides you feel ashamed. Holding all this in is starting to make you feel lonely. You know life should be different but you’re overwhelmed and you wonder how everyone else seems to do it so easily.

Impossible is temporary. As a relational psychologist specializing in issues like trauma and addictions, I have learned this time and time again. The combination of a supportive relationship, motivation to change well-worn patterns, and clear, concrete guidance can lead to changes far beyond what people believe is possible. Sometimes it seems "impossible" to live a deeper, more connected existence. We may carry scars of rejection and betrayal that keep us from being our truest selves. We heal in the context of genuine, warm, accepting relationships that also encourage us to take risks. I so enjoy building these relationships.

Something is just not right. Something needs to change and you're ready to do the work. Making changes creates challenges, and any great effort has the potential for unintentional and unexpected consequences: personal relationships, grief, anxiety, depression. I work with everyone wanting to take these steps, people who want to take accountability and collaborate on a path forward.

Finding someone to speak with and asking for help is a courageous step. I understand how it can be to share personal information with someone you have just met and I will hold this position with respect. Many people come to therapy for support with anxiety, depression, stress, loss and relationship issues. For some, therapy is more about understanding themselves, changing patterns of behavior that are outdated and they are making efforts to move forward. Therapy is not about advice giving, although many times, problem solving is part of the process. Change seems more likely when there is someone listening to us and we feel encouraged. It's also useful to speak with someone who has knowledge of the most effective strategies for change. It is my hope that whatever your reason for seeking therapy, together we can create a useful experience for you.
