Getting to know Olga Tapia
For the past 10 years, I have worked as a licensed clinical therapist with clients ranging from children to the elderly. I have experience with various diagnoses in both in-patient and out-patient settings. It has been an honor to be a part of my clients' recovery, strengthening, and healing.
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Loma Linda University, which has provided a strong foundation for my clinical practice. My experience has shown me that we tend to benefit from a supportive and accepting environment where we can identify and work toward our goals. I believe that we can learn to take control of our focus and thinking, leading to improved mood, a stronger sense of self, and true healing.
I have experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is effective in identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and changing these habits. I also use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to assist clients in understanding and effectively using their emotions. Being mindful of thoughts and feelings is a greatly empowering ability, and it is a privilege for me to work with individuals on their journey to this empowerment.
We all face challenges in life and sometimes need assistance navigating through them. I believe therapy can be an effective way to gain clarity, find understanding, and learn skills that strengthen us to face life with courage.
