Adding life to your years
Thoughtful therapy for older adults and their families exploring the transitions, losses, and questions of later life.
Areas I Can Help With
Therapy for Older Adults
For Those Navigating Later Life
Later life brings questions that deserve real attention. Purpose after retirement, relationships that have grown complicated, losses that accumulate, and what this chapter is actually for. Therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and feel genuinely heard.
Caregiver & Family Support
For Those Caring for Aging Parents
Caring for an aging parent while managing your own life is exhausting emotionally, practically, and often invisibly. Therapy offers a space to process the grief, guilt, and complexity of this role without losing yourself in it.
Later-Life Couples Therapy
For Couples in the Second Half of Life
Long marriages carry long histories, patterns, resentments, and distances that have built up over decades. But they also carry depth, shared memory, and the possibility of reconnection. Therapy can help you understand each other again.
Hi, I’m Olea.
I'm a psychodynamic therapist working with older adults and their families in Toronto. I came to this work through my own experience as an immigrant, a daughter caring for aging parents, and someone who spent childhood listening to grandparents' stories in Kazakhstan.
I believe later life still holds questions worth exploring. My work is warm, unhurried, and grounded in genuine curiosity about who you are and what matters to you now.
I offer therapy in both English and Russian.

Flexible, private sessions you can access from anywhere.
Online therapy works well if mobility is a concern, you prefer your own space, or you're caring for someone and can't easily leave home. All you need is a quiet room and a stable internet connection.
