Rooted in acceptance. Growing through change.

-Olivia Heath

People usually find their way here when something in life has become harder to navigate. At Acorn + Root Behavioral Therapy, I believe meaningful change begins with trust and connection. My approach is collaborative and mindful of each person’s unique needs.

As a DBT-Linehan Board Certified Clinician™ and EMDR practitioner, I integrate evidence-based approaches to support understanding emotions and working with them, address life's challenges with flexibility and resilience, and to find and process the patterns that still show up and wreak havoc in your life today. I provide virtual therapy for adults across New Mexico, Nebraska, and Florida.

The foundation of my work is the belief that change begins with deeper self-understanding. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or confused about why life feels so hard; or why managing life feels so hard.

 

I started my therapy career in Florida where I worked with military in an inpatient setting. I come from a military community and am still very much embedded in that community to this day. I also have a fondness for the neurodivergent population as I am also a part of this community and have a personal understanding of the many challenges that are faced both in the world and that can occur in healthcare settings because of misunderstanding. I have a passion for supporting those that I truly understand.

I approach therapy through a balance of acceptance and change. This means validating your experiences while working collaboratively toward behavioral change. I integrate DBT with other evidence-based approaches to help clients build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and move toward lives that feel more grounded and fulfilling. I incorporate trauma-informed care and provide trauma protocols using EMDR, CPT, and PE recognizing how past experiences shape present struggles.

Above all, I believe therapy is most effective when it is collaborative, respectful, and grounded in genuine connection. My goal is to help you understand yourself more clearly, build practical skills, and create sustainable change.
