Olivia Sessanna

My communication style

As a provider, my foundational approach is to meet clients exactly where they are. While I can be straightforward and direct, I can also hold a gentle, supportive space to help you find your own footing. Together, we will collaboratively decide on the specific style and tone of communication that best supports your unique healing journey and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

We are all innately helpers; needing each other is a core part of the human experience. Seeing firsthand how a skilled provider's expertise empowers individuals to reach their potential for contentment drew me to this work. I pursued my degree after COVID forced us to ask for help and expand our ideas of connection.

My goals for you

Once we've clarified your goals and understand the barriers you may struggle with we can develop a plan together of what the steps would look like to reach those goals. We assess at each step what is working what is not and adjust as we need. Examples: mindfulness, coping strategies, reframing, wellness approaches, activity/tasks breakdown.

Our first session

I start by assessing and gaining understanding what led you to reach out for support, what your specific goals are, and what your past experiences have been. By exploring these core areas together, we can begin to develop a clearer understanding of your needs and create a personalized roadmap to help you achieve what you are seeking in therapy.
