Olivia Elick
Psychotherapist, MSW, LGSW
“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.” – Arundhati Roy.
Being where you are can be an overwhelming, intricate, daunting and yet beautiful experience…. The therapeutic space has the transformative power for us to be together in each thought, feeling, sensation, and continuous stories we carry. These experiences may often include not just our own narrative, but also the presence of familial, cultural, and collective influences. Olivia welcomes those who are in the beginning stages of exploring this space and curious about the relational aspects of healing and change. In a therapeutic space with Olivia, there can be elements of mindfulness, humor, exploring different “parts” of oneself, acceptance and commitment strategies, motivational interviewing, delving into connections of our past, present, and future selves. But most importantly leading with love throughout the co-creation of the space and authentic relationship.
Olivia’s professional experience in relational healing includes working with youth and adults across various community resources, education settings, individual crisis therapy, and advocacy work within healthcare and governmental spaces. In our interactions with each other, there are new worlds being created that proves the existence of collective liberation and healing.

Carrie Stark
Psychotherapist, MSW, LICSW
“We are all in the process of becoming.” -Audre Lorde
This process of becoming is hard. Exploring what, how, and why we are becoming is what Carrie believes therapy is for.
Carrie takes a very relaxed, come as you are, approach to therapy. Her most important task as a therapist is to bring a certain presence to sessions to explore these questions together, an increasingly rare experience in a world where isolation is on the rise and materialism in all forms is valued over genuine connection and community.
Carrie loves working with first time therapy clients, clients who have hated therapy in the past, those who like exploring big ideas and challenging questions, and anyone who might be struggling to feel truly alive. Carrie values curiosity, creativity, and creating meaning out of suffering with humor and humility.

Addie Smith
Office Manager, Billing Specialist
After moving to Minneapolis from the west coast in 2017, Addie (they/them) found their way into mental health administration and it turns out, there are very few things they love more than collaborating with therapists and their clients. Addie deeply values cultivating a space where clients can feel safe, supported, and empowered here. Outside of office administration, they also work as a dancer, choreographer, and artist mentor for youth dancers in the Twin Cities. In their free time you’ll find them biking around the city, finding a new cafe to go to, watching a silly show, or simply lying down (on some grass/in a lake/on their apartment floor/etc). Addie warmly welcomes any and all questions, concerns, musings, jokes, funny pictures – you name it!
