About Olivia
Olivia Cornwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who centers her work on what each person most needs. She uses a warm, straightforward style and aims to help people handle stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. Olivia also supports people facing trauma, relationship strains, parenting challenges, eating concerns, and compassion fatigue.
She has six years of experience across outpatient, inpatient, and school settings. That background includes both individual and group therapy offered in person and online.
How Olivia works
Much of her practice focuses on helping people improve communication, manage mood swings, and cope after loss or major transitions. Olivia favors a client-centered approach, which means she shapes sessions around the person's goals and pace. She combines that with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to address thinking patterns that worsen distress.
Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness exercises are used when people need ways to manage intense emotions and stay present. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques appear when someone wants to set achievable goals or make a change. Sessions often include skill practice, short-term goal planning, and candid conversation about what is and isn't working.
Olivia aims to make therapy understandable and realistic for everyday life. She works from Utah and provides services in English. Olivia emphasizes collaboration and clear steps so people leave sessions with tools they can try between meetings.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's priorities and adjusts to what they want to work on. Online sessions let Olivia center each meeting around immediate goals and concerns, whether someone needs short-term problem solving or ongoing support.Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and actions. In online sessions this often includes identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying behavioral experiments between meetings, and reviewing results together to refine strategies.
Dialectical behavior therapy offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Olivia introduces practical DBT tools such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation during video or phone sessions, then coaches people on practicing those skills in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Olivia will talk with clients about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan based on what proves helpful. She values clear goals and regular check-ins so the treatment stays aligned with the person's priorities.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face interaction and skill coaching, while phone calls can be lower bandwidth or allow flexible check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, quick coping tools, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
