Olivia Blythe
THEY/THEM
I’m Olivia Blythe (they/them), a second-year graduate social work student and an abolitionist intersectional feminist. I’m dedicated to working with individuals impacted by acute and historical trauma, interpersonal violence, and state-sanctioned violence.
My focus is on fostering individual and community healing, empowering survivors to reclaim safety and autonomy after experiencing assault. .
With six years of experience supporting individuals who have endured power-based violence, I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space that feels collaborative, warm, and client-centered.
My therapeutic style is direct yet empathetic, blending curiosity with compassion. I strive to build an environment where clients feel heard without judgment, offering support while gently challenging them to foster growth. I’m exploring and incorporating trauma-informed techniques, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and somatic practices, to meet the specific needs of each client.
I specialize in supporting survivors of sexual violence, family violence, and refugees, helping them navigate complex trauma and rebuild a sense of safety and empowerment.
I deeply believe that it is possible to feel better, and I know that comprehending the violence you have experienced is an integral part of your healing journey.
