Hi, my name is Darlene Oliver (she/her), a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC).
I have 25 years of experience providing therapy in multiple settings, including inpatient mental health, outpatient day programs, and outpatient drug and alcohol settings. I enjoy working with people living with anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder, OCD, Addiction issues, and religious trauma/deconstruction, to name a few.
I believe, first and foremost, in unconditional acceptance and building a trusting relationship. I enjoy exploring with people collaboratively where they’ve become stuck and working together to change patterns that aren’t working to begin to make positive changes. I will also support you in healing from difficult life struggles, including grief and loss.
My approach to therapy often includes techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I’ll also focus on empowering you and working to build your self-esteem and confidence to reach your goals and full potential. I work with people of all age ranges, from young adults to help them explore a sense of direction to middle-aged and beyond. I enjoy working with men and women from all backgrounds and identities, including histories of abuse and trauma.
As a CAADC, I’ve worked in a Drug & Alcohol Intensive Outpatient (IOP) and both detox and dual diagnosis facilities.
I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health and Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of South Florida and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Southeastern University.
I enjoy watching movies with my family and going out to dinner in my free time. I enjoy reading and going to the gym. I also love to go to the beach whenever I can.
If you are looking for someone to talk to and work through your issues with, I would love to have the opportunity to speak with you!
