Life is full of challenges, but being happy shouldn’t be one of them, and feeling like you are alone shouldn’t be another. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor with over sixteen years of experience helping people overcome some of life’s biggest challenges. I have experience in job and career development, disability adjustment and coping, addictions, relationships, anger management, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have a direct, solution-focused approach and take pride in being non-judgmental and accepting. I consider it my responsibility to help my patients develop coping skills to address their problems.
Counseling provides a therapeutic relationship where you can explore issues and work towards personal growth and healing. It presents an opportunity to negotiate obstacles and find healthy coping skills that lead to healthier decisions. It gives you the opportunity to learn new ways of thinking and behaving that helps you find peace and happiness.
I use several approaches, including cognitive-behavior therapy, rational emotive behavior therapy, acceptance, commitment therapy, and brief therapy techniques.
It takes courage to seek help, and I want to congratulate you on taking that first step.
I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:
Vivian puts up with my darker remarks and focuses on keeping me on track as opposed to letting me go on dark tangents.
She’s professional
A competent Professional who allows for open dialogue and offers interesting feedback instead of just asking “how does that make you feel?”
She understands me and tries hard to understand me better.
Vivian has been great so far we have only been working together for a few weeks. She responses quickly and takes the time to reach out between sessions. She has helped a lot and I look forward to working with her in the future.
Vivian's empathy and attention to detail is what makes her a great help. She was able to understand how I think very quickly and support me. She opened up my mind on how I process and think about issues and while showing compassion and kindness.
I cannot recommend Vivian highly enough. The work we have done together has been absolutely transformational. Her insights, warmth and humour have been wonderful. I have emerged a different person and I’ll never forget the deep impact her guiding hand has had on me. Marco
She is great!!!
She listens and responds with honesty.
I’ve only just recently started working with Vivian, but I feel she has an understanding of my personality.
I appreciate the help she has offered in my dark time in life and the help to guide me back.
Vivian has been great so far. Very kind, helpful and understanding. After about an hour phone call I felt alot better and it was probably the best I had felt in months. She found multiple different ways to help, things for me to do and active ways to help myself. I've been in therapy before and Vivian is so much better than any therapist I've had before.
