--- title: blog | Katie Olvera, PsyD description: "I’ve been in private practice since 2016, where I specialize in working with adults who have been impacted by interpersonal trauma. I became an Approved Clinical Supervisor in 2021 to support and guide LMHCAs in their licensure process. \n\nI also teach at Western Washington University as a Senior Instructor in the Psychology Department. I’ve been teaching undergraduate courses for the last eight years. \n\nTeaching and mentoring are two roles that I find fulfilling and that energize my passion for clinical psychology. It’s exciting to embark on this new business venture, as it offers another opportunity for me to support clinicians in our community in these roles." --- ![Phone](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/@marketplace/MakeWebBetter/Academia/images/icons/phone.svg) (360) 389-2587 ![Message Icon](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/@marketplace/MakeWebBetter/Academia/images/icons/envelope-white.svg)  info@coastlinecounselingassociation.com [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Coastline-Counseling-Association/61561978021089/) [![CCA+-+Black](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/hubfs/CCA+-+Black.png)](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com) ![menu](https://f.hubspotusercontent40.net/hubfs/7479797/menu.png) ![close\_24px](https://7479797.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/7479797/close_24px.svg) - [About](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/about-us) Show submenu for About - [About](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/about-us) - [How it Works](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/how-it-works) - [FAQs](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/counseling-association-faqs) - [Contact](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/contact) - [Supervision Training](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/supervision-training-program) - Become a Member Show submenu for Become a Member - [Membership Process](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/become-a-member) - [Apply](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/apply-now) - [Coastline Members](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/find-a-counselor-in-wa-state-0) - [Events](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/counselor-events-in-bellingham-wa) - Resources Show submenu for Resources - [Counseling Organizations in WA](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/list-of-counseling-organizations-in-washington-state) - [Private Practice Checklist](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/private-practice-checklist) - [Blog](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/blog) - [About](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/about-us) Show submenu for About - [About](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/about-us) - [How it Works](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/how-it-works) - [FAQs](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/counseling-association-faqs) - [Contact](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/contact) - [Supervision Training](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/supervision-training-program) - Become a Member Show submenu for Become a Member - [Membership Process](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/become-a-member) - [Apply](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/apply-now) - [Coastline Members](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/find-a-counselor-in-wa-state-0) - [Events](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/counselor-events-in-bellingham-wa) - Resources Show submenu for Resources - [Counseling Organizations in WA](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/list-of-counseling-organizations-in-washington-state) - [Private Practice Checklist](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/private-practice-checklist) - [Blog](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/blog) Our Blog # Opening a Private Practice Resources   [Discover More](https://www.hubspot.com/) [Get Started](https://www.hubspot.com/) - [Home](https://www.hubspot.com/) - Blog ![Katie Olvera, PsyD](https://www.coastlinecounselingassociation.com/hubfs/People/Katie%20Olvera%2c%20PsyD%20Bellingham%2c%20WA.jpg) # Katie Olvera, PsyD I’ve been in private practice since 2016, where I specialize in working with adults who have been impacted by interpersonal trauma.
