Olivia Alvizo-Johnson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Welcome, I'm Liv! I'm really happy you're here today and I hope you realize what a huge step you are taking in making a change in your life.
You deserve a virtual space where you can breathe a little easier. Where you can talk about whatever is on your mind because you usually keep your feelings to yourself. You want to feel rooted and confident in who you are and ready to uncover root causes of your anxiety and low self-esteem. You deserve to heal and live the life you've always craved.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have been working with women and children for the past decade in a myriad of settings. I truly believe this wide range of experience in areas such as preventive, clinical, schools, shelters, etc. has given me a holistic understanding of the various needs of my clients. I bring this knowledge, my own background and experiences, and my clinical experience into therapy in order to provide a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment that promotes healing - no matter what a person's need or trauma is.
