My name is Olivia Krawtchuk and my pronouns are she/her. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Yoga Therapist, Yoga Teacher, and Ecopsychologist. It is my deepest honor to guide clients in their journey of self discovery, healing, and radical acceptance.
As a Holistic Mental Health Therapist, I process with you and create a space of openness, trust, and acceptance. As a Yoga Therapist, I provide various tools to fit your specific needs, such as breathing exercises, meditations, and somatic movement. I believe that a big missing link in therapy is the body and therefore practice from a somatic perspective because one, our bodies hold a wealth of wisdom and information and two, our bodies have a story to tell… are you ready to listen?
My eclectic approach draws on various therapies, from Compassion-Focused and Internal Family Systems (Parts Work) to Mindfulness Meditation and Ecotherapy/Ecopsychology. This approach provides broader perspective and insight, as well as a deeper understanding of who you are. I approach therapy from the mind, body, and spirit perspective and believe that an integration of the three is important to the therapy process.
I recently completed additional training in Ecopsychology at Naropa University because I believe that having a compassionate, reciprocal relationship with the earth is important to mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
As a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I am deeply passionate about working with clients who are a part of the community. Working from a queer lens in my practice means that we will continually question, challenge, and disrupt linear ways of thinking, seeing, being, and moving through the world and in turn welcome in non-linear, spiral, fluid, and creative ways of being.
I enjoy practicing therapy from a holistic framework that is rooted in justice for all, equality, loving-kindness, and strength.
