Hi there, I am Vivianna. I am a compassionate and highly skilled clinical therapist dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey toward healing and personal growth. My experience in working with diverse populations allows me to address a wide range of mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Through active listening and empathetic understanding, I empower my clients to gain insights into their behaviors and patterns, fostering resilience and self-awareness. With my guidance, individuals and couples can find the strength to overcome obstacles and embrace a more fulfilling and meaningful life. As an English and Spanish-speaking therapist, I've provided mental health services for over 15 years specializing in couples therapy, for individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma. I earned my Master of Psychology degree with a specialty in Marriage and Family Therapy from Carlos Albizu University. I am licensed in the State of Florida as a clinical member of the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
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.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - We will focus your thoughts for more comfortable feelings, to promote more effective behavior to reach your goals. I provide unconditional positive regard, assuring you have a safe space to explore your hopes and dreams. I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy- each session is tailored to YOUR needs and YOUR goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Insight and the skills to be the best version of themselves. My approach to therapy is providing clients with a safe and non-judgmental space. Counseling can be done in Spanish or English.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working clients that are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck and overwhelmed in different areas of their life.
