Hi, I’m Olivia!

 I’m an intern counsellor currently pursuing my Master’s in Counselling Psychology. My path to becoming a counsellor has been deeply shaped by my personal life experiences and the transformative support I’ve received from counsellors along the way. These experiences, combined with my professional background working with diverse clients in an equine setting, have fostered my profound appreciation for the power of connection, understanding, and healing. Witnessing the incredible growth that human-animal bonds can facilitate has inspired me to approach counselling with the same spirit of empathy and partnership.

 My counselling philosophy is person-centered, focusing on your unique strengths, values, and lived experiences. I’m passionate about helping clients navigate life’s challenges while honouring their individuality and uncovering the inner resources needed to create a life of balance, meaning, and fulfillment.

I take a holistic perspective, understanding how biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors intersect to shape who we are. Together, we’ll explore patterns in your thoughts, behaviors, and relationships to uncover insights into your experiences. From this foundation, we’ll collaborate to develop strategies that align with your values, empowering you to build resilience and move confidently toward your goals.

I believe in the transformative power of kindness, curiosity, and authentic connection. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel genuinely heard and understood. Whether you’re seeking support for personal growth, healing from past experiences, or navigating life transitions, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.”
— C. S. Lewis
