Getting to know Olivia Yake

Maybe you understand yourself well, but still find yourself stuck in the same patterns. Maybe you’re questioning who you are, navigating a major life transition, feeling the effects of overwhelm, or trying to make sense of an experience that shaped you in ways you don’t fully understand yet. You don’t have to have it all together to start therapy. I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with experience working with individuals across the lifespan, and I'm especially passionate about supporting adolescents and adults who are navigating identity exploration, trauma, life transitions, and anxiety.

What should a new client know about working with you?

DISCLAIMER: We are not able to accept Medicare or Medicaid plans at this time. I was led to this work by my belief in the innate value of all people, as well as the beauty I find in human connection. I’m particularly committed to providing affirming care for LGBTQIA+ clients, including those who may be questioning and exploring their identity. I recognize that therapy hasn’t always been - and isn’t always - a safe space for the queer community and people with marginalized identities. My ongoing commitment to you is to ground my work in cultural humility and care. It’s hard to show up as yourself in the world we live in, and my hope is to create a space where your story is welcome and all the messy, uncertain parts of you are embraced.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I believe that each of us already has the capacity for healing and it’s important to me that we work together to decide what that healing looks like for you. My therapeutic style is gentle, compassionate, and collaborative – you can expect me to remain genuinely curious about how your experiences have influenced your strengths, challenges, and way of showing up in the world. Laughing, crying, and everything in between is welcome in the therapy room. My approach is primarily informed by evidence-based modalities like Internal Family Systems (parts work), systems theory, trauma theory, and somatic approaches to regulation and grounding. I also draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques, depending on what aligns with your goals and values. I’m interested in the whole person, including how your identity, relationships, family, and broader social environment have shaped your mental health.
