Wondering why plants?
I love plants. Nature is life, and without it we wouldn’t be able to survive. Plants provide us oxygen to breathe, food, and shade. Plants, like humans, are living beings and live in an ecosystem. They need other elements to survive, such as light, soil, nutrients, water, and sun. Plants are connected to other parts and thrive when in equilibrium. Humans and families are not much different. Families are interdependent and operate as an emotional unit.
*Using plants as depictions instead of people is also to remain neutral and ensure I am inclusive of all genders, races and types of consensual relationships.
Therapy with
Dr. Olivia Schläpfer Colmer
My Objective:
“To empower clients to use their thinking and insight to create better relationships, improve communication, and develop realistic expectations. Hello and welcome to my practice.”
I’m Dr.Olivia Schläpfer Colmer and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 16 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I see clients virtually (video or phone) all over the State of Florida and New York . If you prefer in person therapy, my private practice is in the Upper East Side of Miami.
I offer therapeutic services to people who are seeking change, insight, and guidance in their personal and professional lives, or in their significant relationships. I welcome all gender relationships and sexual orientations. Confidentiality, respect, and emotional safety are very important principles in my practice.
RELATIONSHIPS ARE COMPLEX
My goal as a therapist is to provide a supportive, safe, and interactive environment where we explore unresolved conflicts together and find new ways to break relationship patterns that keep you stuck. Improving your relationships and better coping with your challenges – the foundation for creating long lasting change – requires a shift in context, perspective, and how you define your relationships.
“My passion is to help you recognize your full potential, achieve your personal goals, and enhance your relationships. ”
Relationships are multifaceted and every person, couple, and family experiences challenges along the way. Many, dynamics in relationships can be difficult. Here are some areas and challenges that invite people to seek therapy:
Communication and Trust Issues
Anxiety and Stress
Infidelity
Parenting and Stepparenting
Separation or Divorce
Blended Families
Family of Origin
Professional and Personal Unfulfillment
Lack of Sexual Intimacy
Managing In-laws
Financial Stress
The demands and pressures of family life, a career, or seeking personal fulfillment can be trying for anyone. Working with a therapist who can understand your situation and has the experience to help guide you to resolve your problems effectively -- while discovering new solutions and meaning in your life -- is vital for therapy to be successful.
