About Olivia

Olivia Gordon is an LCSW based in Oklahoma who has spent the last four years working with people facing complex personal challenges. She combines evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, faith-informed perspective to help clients clarify values, build resilience, and find practical steps forward.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes improving communication, strengthening relational patterns, and fostering self-compassion as part of long-term growth. Using a mix of cognitive and emotion-focused tools, Olivia supports people dealing with addictions, depression, trauma, intimacy concerns, and a wide range of relational and life-stage issues.

She also attends to specific themes such as adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and questions related to kink and alternative sexual cultures. Clients can expect collaborative work aimed at creating meaningful strategies tailored to their circumstances and goals.

How evidence-informed approaches translate online



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; it is often used for depression, anxiety, and difficulties related to addiction or relationship problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and increasing psychological flexibility through acceptance and mindful action, which can support clients facing chronic stress, loss, or ongoing life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns formed early in life and how they influence current relationships, helping people repair connection and address intimacy or attachment-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, try appropriate strategies, and adapt methods over time so treatment aligns with the client's goals and preferences. This flexible, client-centered stance makes it easier to adjust the plan as progress and challenges arise.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessibility and scheduling because sessions can occur through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow people to receive continuing care from licensed professionals with fewer logistical barriers, supporting consistent work on skills, processing, and problem solving regardless of location.
