About ArinNaia

ArinNaia Olson is a licensed mental health counselor in Washington with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, stress, and life changes. Her work also addresses grief, relationship struggles, addictions, and concerns like self-esteem and sleep problems.

She uses an approachable, gentle style in sessions. ArinNaia aims to meet people where they are and tailor support to each person’s situation. She emphasizes kindness, listening, and building a trusting working relationship.

Background and approach

Her approach draws on several practices that attend to the mind and body. That includes client-centered methods that prioritize the client's perspective, Jungian ideas that explore personal meaning, hypnotherapy to access relaxed states, and EMDR for trauma-related distress. She also weaves in existential and mindfulness ideas to help people find values and calm.

In practice she helps people set clear goals and finds practical steps to reach them. Sessions can include guided reflection, grounding exercises, gentle use of imagery, and conversations about patterns that get in the way of daily functioning. The intent is to make change feel manageable and realistic.

She works with a broad range of concerns such as ADHD, caregiver stress, body image, chronic illness and pain, codependency, abandonment and attachment questions. ArinNaia encourages collaboration on a plan that fits each person’s needs and goals.

Online support

Approaches you might try online

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access calmer mental states and work on habits, confidence, and stress. It can be useful for sleep problems, anxiety, body image, and building new routines.

Client-centered therapy centers the person's own experience. The therapist listens without judgment and helps the person make sense of feelings and choices, which is helpful for self-esteem, coping with life changes, and relationship concerns.

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is used to address distress tied to traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided bilateral stimulation. It is often applied when past events continue to cause strong emotional or bodily reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what feels most comfortable. This collaborative process helps choose methods that best match each person’s needs and pace.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility. Video is useful for richer conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging can fit short check-ins or busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or health routines.
