Olive is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associate who recognises that healing rarely follows a straight line, and that moments of humour often find their way in. She brings curiosity, a dry wit, and deep respect for each client’s lived experience. Her sessions are conversational and collaborative, focused on understanding rather than judgment.

​

With a background spanning crisis work, education, athletics, and the arts, she is at ease in a wide range of human experiences. She takes a trauma-informed, collaborative approach to help clients make sense of identity shifts, stuck patterns, and relationship dynamics that seem to defy logic.

​

Away from the therapy room, she can often be found watching true crime or negotiating with a strong-willed French bulldog. She holds graduate degrees in Education (San Francisco State University) and Counseling Psychology (The Wright Institute) and practices under the supervision of Lori Torres, LMFT #1603, while engaging in ongoing consultation and professional development.
