Anxiety & Depression Therapy in New York City

Anxiety and depression often coexist with addiction — and often arise from traumatic events. Treating the mood without treating what lies beneath it rarely lasts; Oliver treats them together.

A body-based approach to mood

As a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), trained in the method founded by Dr. Peter Levine, Oliver helps clients learn the language of the body and dissipate distress at its physiological roots — so that deep and lasting healing can happen, not just symptom management.

Gentle guidance, practical tools

Alongside Somatic Experiencing, Oliver draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, humor, and connection with others, plus everyday recovery tools: gratitude lists, a supportive network, building self-esteem, staying present, and letting go of resentments. The aim is practical and steady: an increased ability to handle life events that used to feel overwhelming.

When addiction is part of the picture

For clients whose anxiety or depression travels with sex addiction or substance and alcohol abuse, Oliver addresses the whole picture in one place — with the same therapist, in the same process — rather than splitting the person into separate problems.
