Oliver Parkes
I was born in the United Kingdom and spent 17 years working in professional roles across the UK, Dubai (UAE), Singapore, and several regions of the United States. Those experiences gave me a practical understanding of stress, career transitions, adapting to change, and balancing competing responsibilities.
My move into counseling was shaped by a longstanding interest in human psychology, a belief in people’s ability to re-write the stories they hold about themselves, and a desire to support others through difficult periods of life. Today, I combine life experience with clinical training to help clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, self-worth concerns, and life transitions.
My approach is collaborative, grounded, and thoughtful. I aim to provide a space where clients can better understand themselves and work toward lasting change.
