Home / About Dr. Olson
Dr. Olson opened a private practice in Lynnwood, Washington and saw his first client in November of 1985. Early in his career, he specialized in anger management and the treatment of adolescents. As his career progressed, he developed expertise in the treatment of domestic violence perpetrators. Dr. Olson has worked extensively with adult survivors of childhood trauma as well as with those who have suffered major trauma as an adult. He has remained steadily employed as a private practitioner throughout his extensive career.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Olson dedicates a significant portion of his time to his community and to volunteer service. He has been an active member in his evangelical church since 1986. He served as the Junior High Youth Group Leader there for nearly nine years. He regularly teaches adult Sunday and serves an elder on the church board. Dr. Olson has also conducted seminars, workshops, and retreats on a variety of topics both professional and regarding his Christian faith. He enjoys public speaking.
Dr. Olson is native to the Pacific Northwest, having been born and raised outside of Marysville, Washington. He was the fifth of six children born to committed Christian parents who raised him to love God, work hard, enjoy life, and be real with people. Those early life lessons form the core of his practice today. Though his parents have passed, he enjoys close relationships with all his siblings.
Dr. Olson pursues many hobbies including hunting, fishing, hiking, home remodeling, and fire-wising 24 acres in Eastern Washington. He was landlord of four duplex units for 10 years and has dabbled in real estate and land development. He has always bought “fixer uppers”, and over the years has become somewhat of a jack of all trades.
Dr. Olson is known for his buoyant personality, and he enjoys a healthy family/work/life balance. His attitude and honesty serve as a role model for those who know him.
Dr. Olson has been happily married to his wife, Khyra, since 1982. They have two adult children and enjoy getting together often for cooking, eating, lively discussion, and playing games. He also enjoys traveling with his wife and daughter.
