Vivian's Holistic Wellness
(she/her)
Let me start by saying self-care is the one thing that we can do for ourselves, but is usually the last thing we do for ourselves. So, congratulations for taking the first steps in caring for yourself. The journey of therapy is not easy. There will be times when it gets exhausting but as you continue through your path the answers will be revealed through the work you complete with your therapist. It is a privilege and honor to walk the journey. As a therapist, I have worked with a plethora of clients from couples counseling, to adolescent, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and mood disorders.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My biggest strength as an LMFT is just listening to my client's needs, not my needs but the clients. I allow my clients to show what they would like to work on and when needed I will step in for guidance.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with young professionals who are in the first few years of their careers. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their careers.

Vivian has been such a great help in building my confidence and quieting my pessimistic outlook. She is kind, warm, intelligent, authentic, great listener, and a creative soul. I value our connection and look forward to our future sessions.
