About me

I have been working in the mental health field for 4 years. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology. I chose a career in mental health to assist others in maintaining a mentally healthy lifestyle. I have worked with children and adults who have symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, behavior disorders, depression, parenting problems, social issues, and more. I also work with military service members and their families when experiencing challenging times. My counseling style is warm and engaging. My treatment approach is that of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). However, every client is different; therefore, each treatment plan is tailored to accommodate the individual client's needs. I believe that it is important for individuals to understand the root of their issues and understand methods to recognize triggers, provide coping strategies, and allow them to see how their perspectives shape their view of the world. When changing their view, they positively change their behaviors.

Whether you seek change for a healthier, happier life or need a non-judgmental party, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to meeting and working with you.

I loved Octavia's approach to therapy. She started sessions by asking me to describe my feelings that day, and for me that made me introspect immediately and start thinking about my feelings and my needs. I really appreciated her patience and the healing advice she's given me. Her affirmations helped me grow and see the positive in myself.

I feel so lucky to have Octavia as a therapist. I was shocked that the website matched so on point, the first try. She has been very helpful to me.

Octavia is amazing. My connection with her way greater than I ever would have expected, better than face to face with a therapist in their office that I was previously working with. I feel more like I'm talking to a friend than a therapist. Yet she is still guiding me, and I am feeling like I've advanced so much since I have started working with Octavia. Octavia is inspiring, kind, and just knows her stuff (for lack of a better word.) I'd recommend her to anyone.

Octavia is extremely easy to talk to. She immediately made me feel comfortable and listens without judgement. She gives me concrete ways to work through any issues I'm having.
