About Olivia

I’m a certified hypnotherapist and registered alcohol and drug technician with a background in trauma-informed care and creative facilitation. My work centers on helping people shift subconscious patterns, regulate their nervous systems, and develop deeper self-knowledge and trust.

I work with a wide range of clients, including creatives, entrepreneurs, and professionals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. I also support individuals moving through recovery, major transitions, or times of emotional overwhelm and uncertainty.

I’ve worked privately and in treatment centers across Los Angeles, supporting clients through hypnotherapy and experiential group work focused on storytelling and self-expression. My approach blends clinical tools with an emphasis on approaching healing with curiosity, safety, and humor.

What I offer

Personalized sessions for:

  • Stress reduction and nervous system regulation

  • Sleep issues and insomnia support

  • Performance blocks and creative flow

  • Inner child work and parts dialogue

  • Shifting unwanted habits and self-sabotage patterns

  • Past life regression and spiritual exploration

I offer free 15-minute consultations so you can ask questions, share what you're looking for, and get a chance to connect and see if it feels like a good match.

Why Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is not about providing an external fix. It’s about listening to the parts of you that already know what needs to change. It’s a gentle, focused process that helps you access deeper self-understanding and create lasting changes in how you feel, think, and respond.

Together, we explore how the brain makes sense of experience, and how the stories we form around those experiences shape our lives. When something happens, we give it meaning (often without realizing it), and that meaning drives our emotions and behaviors. Over time, those meanings solidify into subconscious narratives; scripts we follow even when they no longer serve us. When those conflict with what we consciously want to change, it can feel like we’re stuck.

Hypnotherapy helps get to the root of those patterns, creating lasting changes from a place of increased self-knowledge. It’s not about pushing through with willpower. It’s about working with your mind, not against it.

I hold the belief that we’re not here to live someone else’s life or meet someone else’s expectations. The real work is becoming more fully ourselves; the version that only we can be.

This work isn’t about changing who you are.It’s about creating change to become more clearly yourself.

Testimonials

“I loved working with Olivia - she creates a safe and welcoming environment. Handling every question with empathy and guiding the hypnosis very organically. She always personalizes the experience and provides a lot of support through the session when needed. Each time I’ve seen her I’ve gotten positive results in my life and would happily recommend her to anyone looking to explore hypnotherapy.”

“I loved my virtual session with Olivia. She explained how the session would work, simply and clearly, beforehand. Once in session, Olivia guided me through the process seamlessly. I felt in control the entire time. It was both an intense and extremely rewarding experience!”

“I’d never done hypnotherapy before, so I was a little nervous to try it, but Olivia made me feel so at ease every step of the way: a completely safe and supportive experience from beginning to end. Our sessions have helped me clear out and work through past traumas and stale mindsets that have been holding me back from growth and the kind of life I strive to live. In each session I’ve had major breakthroughs and realizations, and I’ve left with a sense of direction, guidance, and clarity that wasn’t there before our session. I’m so grateful I found this type of work through Olivia.”
