About SomaSol Wellness
Danielle Olivieri MSW, RCSW, CPT-S
SomaSol Wellness was born from a deep belief that healing happens in relationship—with ourselves, with others, with community, and with the wisdom that already exists within us.
The name SomaSol reflects the integration of soma (the living, felt experience of the body) and sol (the sun, light, vitality, and growth). Together, they represent a path toward wholeness that honours the connection between mind, body, spirit, emotions, culture, and community.
What began years ago as Flourish Play Therapy and Counselling has evolved into something broader and more deeply aligned with who I am today. While the heart of the work remains the same—creating safety, fostering growth, and supporting healing—SomaSol Wellness reflects a more integrated approach that embraces trauma-informed care, somatic awareness, attachment-based relationships, Indigenous ways of knowing, and holistic wellness practices across the lifespan.
At SomaSol Wellness, I believe that people are not problems to be fixed. Rather, each person carries a story, a history, and an innate capacity for healing and transformation. Many of the struggles we experience are understandable responses to life’s challenges, losses, trauma, disconnection, and unmet needs. Through compassionate support, meaningful relationships, and opportunities for reflection and growth, individuals can reconnect with their strengths and move toward greater wellbeing.
For more than 25 years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside children, youth, adults, families, and communities throughout Southern Alberta and Treaty 7 Territory. My work as a Registered Clinical Social Worker, Certified Play Therapist, consultant, supervisor, trainer, and community advocate has continually reinforced one truth: healing flourishes when people feel seen, valued, respected, and connected.
SomaSol Wellness offers a welcoming and inclusive space where individuals can safely explore their experiences, deepen self-awareness, strengthen resilience, and cultivate meaningful change. Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, your family, or your organization, my approach is grounded in authenticity, compassion, collaboration, and respect for your unique journey.
Our Mission
To create a compassionate and culturally responsive space where individuals, families, and communities can reconnect with their innate wisdom, strengthen relationships, heal from adversity, and move toward greater balance and wellbeing. Through evidence-informed, trauma-informed, attachment-focused, somatic, and holistic practices, SomaSol Wellness supports growth that honours the whole person—mind, body, spirit, emotions, and relationships.
Our Vision
A world where healing is rooted in connection, where every person feels valued and empowered, and where wellness is nurtured through relationships, community, cultural wisdom, and compassionate care.
How Change Happens
At SomaSol Wellness, we understand healing as a relational process. When people experience safety, connection, belonging, and opportunities to make meaning of their experiences, they are better able to regulate emotions, strengthen relationships, access their resilience, and create lasting change.
Our work is guided by the understanding that:
- Relationships are medicine.
- Safety and trust create the foundation for growth.
- The body carries wisdom and holds pathways to healing.
- Culture, identity, and community matter.
- Healing is not about becoming someone new—it is about returning to who you have always been.
Whether through counselling, play therapy, supervision, consultation, training, or community development, SomaSol Wellness is committed to walking alongside people as they move toward greater balance, connection, and wholeness.
