Clinical Supervision & Mental Health Counseling

in Washington State


​Hello!

​I'm Katie Olvera.


​I've been working in the Bellingham community for over 10 years in various roles — as a counselor, educator, advocate, and mentor. ​

After graduating with my PsyD in 2012, I worked in survivor advocacy at Western Washington University as the Violence Prevention Specialist. In 2016, I decided to open a private practice to have more autonomy in my work. At this time, I also started as a non-tenure-track faculty member in Western's Psychology Department and have been teaching ever since. 
​
More recently, I began offering clinical supervision to pre-licensed counselors in WA State. Helping new clinicians grow their practice and their confidence has become an energizing part of my career. I am also a co-founder of Coastline Counseling Association, which guides fully licensed clinicians into private practice. 
​
Additionally, I provide trainings and workshops to agencies seeking to learn how to be more "trauma-informed" in various ways. I have presented at multiple conferences with audiences ranging from Superior Court Judges to Victim Advocates. I have also contributed as an expert witness - testifying in court and writing opinion reports to help juries understand the impacts of trauma and the dynamics of interpersonal violence. ​​
