About

About Olimpia

Olimpia Calaway is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of counseling experience. She works with adults on common and longstanding concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting strain, ADHD, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

She uses a straightforward and interactive style. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to change patterns that cause stress or repeated conflict. Expect direct feedback and collaborative goal-setting rather than long theoretical talks.

Her work draws from several therapy approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems in place. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and choose actions that match those values even when feelings are strong.

Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas also appear in sessions to help people notice emotional reactions and link current problems to earlier experiences. Existential elements prompt reflection about meaning and life choices when clients are facing big transitions or losses.

Olimpia aims to help people develop concrete skills for handling anger, stress, and hard conversations. She also works with issues like sleep, eating concerns, grief, and coping after trauma. If someone prefers Spanish, she can carry the conversation in that language.

To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Olimpia commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and choosing actions that align with those values even when strong emotions arise; it can help with anger that feels automatic or overwhelming. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and mood problems going and teaches practical skills to shift those patterns.

She also brings in mindfulness practices to help people notice bodily and emotional reactions before they escalate. Finding the right mix of methods is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what fits the person's needs and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone choose audio-only check-ins if they prefer lower bandwidth or less time on camera. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and format details when arranging the first appointment.
