I received this unsolicited feedback from a long-term client: "I feel a sense of accomplishment and pride where I'm at with my personal growth. Our sessions have allowed me to grow into my own sense of self, fostering a deeper understanding of who I am and what I value. Through our work, I have gained the confidence to navigate my relationships with greater authenticity and vulnerability while sitting with discomfort and tough emotions - especially when it comes to engaging in more difficult conversations! Thank you again for your dedication, guidance, and unwavering support throughout our sessions. Having someone to walk alongside me in this journey has been so empowering."
. . . . . . . . "I recommend Olivia Fermi as a counsellor. Oliva is a trusted colleague who integrates counselling theory and technique with her varied life experience. With compassion, she adapts her therapeutic approach to the unique needs of her clients." -- Mahmud Nestman, MEd, RCC & founder of the Cura Institute for Integrated Learning
