Background and approach

Vivette draws from several well-known therapy approaches. She blends techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts, dialectical behavior therapy for emotion regulation, and client-centered work to keep the session focused on the person’s priorities.

Over 26 years of work, she has supported people handling family tension, blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment questions, caregiver stress, and feelings of abandonment. She also addresses body image, eating-related issues, guilt, shame, and forgiveness as part of emotional healing. Sessions are offered in English and are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Vivette explains options and helps choose formats that fit someone’s schedule and comfort. She encourages small first steps and partners with clients to find what works for them.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and low motivation by focusing on what matters most and building willingness to act despite discomfort.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together. It helps identify patterns that increase anxiety or low mood and teaches concrete skills to change those patterns over time.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes tools for regulating strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when anger, intense anxiety, or relationship friction gets in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and what feels most useful. That process may include trying different techniques and adjusting as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities and to keep continuity when routines change.
