Background and approach

Her work also addresses concerns tied to first responder roles, HIV and AIDS, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and the effects of infidelity and jealousy. Multicultural issues, prejudice, discrimination, and sexual assault or abuse are included in her focus areas. This breadth lets her tailor conversations to each person’s background and experiences.

Treatment plans are practical and aim for real-world improvements. People meet with her by phone, video, live chat, or text-based messaging, so ongoing care can fit into busy lives. She encourages small steps and regular check-ins to track progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Olivett lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based approaches adapted for online care

Dr. Underwood-Mobley uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues a person brings. One approach she uses focuses on processing trauma and abuse by helping people tell their story in a paced, supported way and develop coping skills to reduce intrusive memories and anxiety. Another commonly used method centers on grief and loss, helping people honor what they have lost while building routines and strategies to manage painful emotions and day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to current problems, life context, and goals, then suggests options and adjusts the plan as therapy proceeds. Clients and the therapist review progress together and change directions when needed to find what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for conversational sessions and visual cues, while phone calls work well when bandwidth is low or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are handy for brief check-ins, homework support, or when someone needs an easier way to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it simpler to keep regular appointments and keep steady momentum toward goals.
