About Olivia
Olivia Knight uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people feel steadier and more able to cope. She works in straightforward language and focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions. Olivia's style is calm and encouraging, and she aims to make therapy feel manageable from the first meeting.
Olivia has three years of professional experience and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has supported people facing stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties, as well as those dealing with trauma and abuse.
How Olivia works
She also helps people who are struggling with self-esteem and motivation, and those adjusting to big life changes. Her approach treats the person as an expert in their own life. Olivia asks questions, listens closely and helps people map out small, practical steps they can try.
Sessions focus on what is useful now and on building skills to manage hard moments in everyday life. People can expect a collaborative tone in sessions. Olivia will help set goals together and review progress over time.
She encourages honesty about what feels helpful and what does not, and adapts her suggestions to each person's situation. Olivia offers therapy in English and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. She provides sessions by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Online support options
How evidence-based approaches translate online
Olivia draws on well-established therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and making small changes. One approach emphasises identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviours and then testing new ways of responding; this helps with anxiety, low mood and confidence. Another approach centres on grounding and safety strategies that support people recovering from trauma and abuse, focusing on stabilising responses and building tolerance for difficult feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Olivia will discuss options with clients, try methods that fit each person's goals, and check in to see what helps. The choice of technique is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.
Online therapy with Olivia uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls suit longer sessions and face-to-face style conversations, while phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter exchanges and ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or study commitments and to keep therapy consistent even when life is busy.
