Decatur Therapist Spotlight: Olga A. Attebery
Here at Aspen Grove Counseling and Wellness in Decatur, we pride ourselves on the compassionate and dedicated professionals that make up our therapy team. Today, we shine a spotlight on one of our standout clinicians, Olga A. Attebery. Olga’s deep empathy, combined with her rich background, make her a beacon of hope in the realm of therapy in Decatur.
Olga’s Journey to Becoming a Decatur Therapist
The path to becoming a therapist is unique for each individual, and Olga's journey was inspired by a profound love for witnessing growth in others. Olga has shared that she became a therapist because she wanted to "hold hope for people who come to therapy feeling hopeless." This heartfelt motivation is palpable in every session she conducts.
The Richness of Olga’s Heritage
One of Olga's strengths lies in her diverse cultural background. Born to immigrant parents - her father is from Ukraine and her mother from the Dominican Republic - she has witnessed firsthand the intricate dance of merging cultures. This bicultural upbringing gives Olga a unique lens, enabling her to understand the diverse ways people communicate and perceive the world around them.
A Unique Approach to Therapy in Decatur
Olga's clientele is as diverse as her interests. She has a keen interest in working with couples striving for deeper connections, or navigating a betrayal, individuals processing the profound grief of losing a loved one, and men searching for a safe haven to express and navigate their emotions.
Specialties and Clientele
Olga's clientele is as diverse as her interests. She has a knack for assisting couples desiring increased connection, helping them rediscover and reignite the bonds that first brought them together. Couples or individuals that are navigating a betrayal trauma or seeking affair recovery are another group that Olga works well with. This is an area where she has a passion for providing calm and steady hope when a client’s world feels upside down. She also provides a comforting space for clients processing the grief and loss of a loved one, guiding them through their journey of healing. Moreover, Olga has created a safe space for men seeking to navigate their emotions, offering understanding and empathy.
A Peek Into Olga's World
Beyond her professional expertise, Olga is an avid reader, she dives deep into fiction and biographies, exploring the myriad worlds and experiences of others.
Fashion, travel, and movies from the 70’s and 80's are just a few of Olga’s other passions that pique her interest outside of the therapy room. Olga would describe her fashion esthetic as “classic with an edge.” She is known to wear pearls with western boots. A few of Olga’s wish list trips are Patagonia, Israel, and a return to Australia. Some of her favorite movies are The Godfather, Urban Cowboy, When Harry Met Sally, Die Hard, and Working Girl.
If you're dining with Olga, sushi, seafood, and a juicy steak might be on the menu. But here's a tidbit that may surprise many: Olga loves the thrill of riding motorcycles. The art of being utterly present while riding mirrors the mindfulness she brings to her practice.
Olga’s Reflections on her Clients
Among the many things that inspire Olga daily, the courage of her clients stands out. She often expresses amazement at their bravery and resilience. To her, witnessing their awakening and transformative journey is not just a job but a profound privilege.
