I am a bilingual Doctor of Nursing Practice with dual certification in Adult Acute Care and Psychiatric-Mental Health, boasting over 10 years of professional experience.

As a mental health counselor and holistic wellness practitioner, I confidently deliver CBT and psychiatric services to children and adults, employing a compassionate yet realistic approach.

First session

The initial appointment typically lasts 55-60 minutes, while medication follow-up appointments are usually 25 -30 minutes. I maintain an open email policy with a response time of under 10 hours.

Strengths

I am a compassionate and realistic mental health provider who approaches psychiatry services and treats patients, both children and adults, as a vocation, never as a business.

Ideal clients

When you work with me, you become part of a supportive team that genuinely cares about your journey. I will celebrate your successes with you and stand by your side during challenging times. Although I can prescribe medications just like other providers, my holistic approach means I take the time to deeply understand your diagnoses, medications, and treatments. Together, we will navigate your path to health and wellness.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common type of talk therapy (psychotherapy). CBT helps individuals become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking, allowing them to view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way. CBT can be a very helpful tool, either on its own or combined with other therapies, in treating mental health disorders such as depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or an eating disorder.

I’ve had many psychiatrists over the years, but she is definitely one who has made me feel like family while still maintaining that professional relationship. She genuinely cares about how I’m doing and will make sure I’m truly okay before getting off the call. She doesn’t just look at things from a clinical perspective either she takes the time to understand my situation and help me see things from a more realistic and grounded perspective.

Dr. Vivian Thomas is truly heartfelt and personable. She made sure my needs were taken care of and that I felt genuinely heard. What stood out most is how she offered options with care and always respected whatever felt most comfortable for me. She is by far the most flexible doctor I’ve ever met—flexible in her approach and completely focused on what works for the patient. I’m so glad my coworker introduced me to her.
