At Olive Branch Wellness, we believe in the power of therapy to heal, transform, and empower. Our mission is to provide compassionate, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed care that honors your lived experiences. Whether you're navigating life transitions, struggling with anxiety or depression, working through trauma, or exploring your identity, we are here to support you.
We offer individual, couples, family and group therapy, as well as consultation and supervision for professionals and organizations. Our approach is anti-oppressive, decolonized, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and deeply rooted in empathy and curiosity.
You deserve a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued. Let’s begin this journey together.
