Healing is possible

Let me help you discover the path toward a more peaceful and balanced life

How I can help

Therapy that is designed to deepen your self-awareness, transforming the way that your challenges impact you, so that you may lead a more authentic, and fulfilling life.

  • This service is designed for you if you do not have the time or availability to commit to the process of therapy, but still require support from a mental health professional either for yourself or regarding the support of a loved one. Consultations of this type are solution focused, and will often include reading material and resources provided by the clinician.

  • This service is designed for you, for when you are ready to commit to the process of therapy. The length of time in therapy is something that will be discussed with your clinician. It can range from 3-10 sessions for some, while others will choose to include sessions in their wellness regimen, ongoing, for several years.

    Please note that therapy services are only offered to adults (17+) at this time.

  • This services is meant for you if you are already working with Daria Oliveira and you would like to include a family member, or spouse for a session. This can be a space for Daria to help faciliate a discussion regarding concerns brought to therapy, as well as how members of your family can support the process. Please note that this is not designed as a traditional couples or family therapy session, but rather the focus is exclusively how these individuals can support you.

A little about me…

Hi, I’m Daria, I’m a Registered Psychotherapist, in practice, for the past 15 years.

I do this work because I believe we all deserve the chance to live an authentic and fulfilling life; a life of connection- to ourselves, and to other people. Often our early experiences teach us that disconnection is necessary for survival; in fact, many of the ways that we show up in adulthood, are coping strategies or adaptations we’ve picked up in our early years. In my clinical practice, and throughout my own personal healing journey, I have witnessed the power and transformation that is possible, when we learn to find safety in exploring our experiences, and challenges on a deeper level. This type of exploration can lead to a greater sense of wholeness, and I am passionate about providing that space to others.
