Therapy that is rooted in connection
Come as you are, Grow as you need.

Individual Therapy
I work with adults who may self-identify as people-pleasers, perfectionists, and workaholics. I'm here to help you slow down and reconnect with your self. My passion is supporting people who have experienced trauma in previous relationships and are wanting to develop healthy, secure attachments. I offer in-person sessions in Charlotte, NC and virtual sessions for NC and SC residents. To learn more about the types of therapy I use, head over to the "About” and “EMDR” pages. I provide trauma-informed, inclusive therapy for all.
My approach is relational and holistic. I focus on building rapport with clients before diving into deeper therapeutic work and I truly believe the secure connection within the therapist-client relationship is transformational.

Relationship Therapy
I offer therapy services to relationships of all varieties, with a special focus on pre-marital/pre-commitment relationships. I use aspects of Emotionally Focused Therapy and The Gottman Method to support couples in connecting with each other on a deeper level. My perspective is inclusive, poly-affirming, and kink-friendly.
I do not accept insurance for couple’s therapy—for more information, head over to the FAQ page.

Trauma Therapy
Trauma therapy is rooted in the belief that our experiences do not have to define who we are. We inherently deserve to be and feel safe. Safe in our relationships. Safe in our bodies. Safe in our minds. We will work together to transform the shame and guilt into compassion through the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. I’ve found the combination of EMDR and traditional talk therapy to be beneficial for clients.
When I’m not in the office, you can usually find me outside on a greenway, at a park, or by the nearest body of water! I love diving into new hobbies, even if they’re just short-lived flings. Some of my favorites include trying out new recipes, wandering through antique malls or plant shops for hours, and curling up with a good book and my cat.
Each time I sit down with a client, I’m reminded of what a privilege it is to be trusted with someone’s story. I don’t take that lightly, and I truly look forward to learning and growing alongside each person I work with.
Meet Your Therapist
Hi! My name is Octavia and I’m the therapist and owner of Wildflower Therapy Collective.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Charlotte, N.C. and I see clients in-person and virtually throughout North and South Carolina. I work with people navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship issues, life transitions, and healing from trauma. Whether you’re just starting your journey or looking for a fresh perspective, I'm here to walk alongside you. Together, we'll explore how your past has shaped your present, and how to create new patterns that better serve you. We celebrate the small wins and learn to lead with compassion for ourselves and others. Progress happens in even the tiniest of changes. As your therapist, I walk beside you providing support and care on your unique journey of growth.
