About Octavia
Octavia Gallon is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage strong emotions and life stress. She works with individuals facing anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem struggles, and the everyday strain of parenting and family problems. Octavia communicates directly and keeps plans practical so clients can see small changes fast.
She uses straightforward tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Solution-Focused techniques guide short-term goal setting so sessions feel productive and focused. When trauma is part of the story, she brings Trauma-Focused strategies to slow the process and keep work manageable. Octavia has six years of experience in mental health and holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology.
She holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential (LPC) and is licensed in Arizona and Wyoming, while practicing from Florida. Her background supports a calm, practical approach rather than a lot of jargon. Sessions are set up to match each person's needs and schedule.
Octavia helps people build simple coping skills for anger, impulsivity, grief, or life changes. She can also work on communication problems, codependency, caregiver stress, attachment concerns, and issues tied to divorce or separation. Her style aims to empower clients to try small experiments between sessions.
Conversations are meant to feel direct and nonjudgmental so people can make steady, realistic progress.

Therapeutic tools and online care that fit your life
Octavia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that fuel anxiety, anger, or low mood. Mindfulness teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in day-to-day life.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, concrete goals and track progress quickly. That approach is useful when someone wants practical steps to reduce conflict, manage impulses, or improve communication. The therapist will talk with each person about which approaches feel like the best fit and adjust plans as goals change; deciding the right method is a collaborative process.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues, while phone sessions can work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, or caregiving routines without long travel.
