About Vivian

Vivian Roberts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. She also supports people navigating self-esteem, anger, and issues related to identity and intimacy. Vivian aims to create an atmosphere of respect, sensitivity, and compassion from the first conversation.

She uses straightforward talk and practical strategies rather than jargon. Vivian adapts sessions to fit each person's needs and priorities. She encourages small, doable steps and checks in on progress regularly.

Her background includes seven years of clinical experience working with a range of emotional and interpersonal challenges. That experience has involved helping people address attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, family of origin issues, and communication struggles. Vivian also has experience supporting people facing chronic illness, caregiver strain, body image worries, and concerns connected to kink and alternative sexual cultures.

Vivian draws on several therapeutic approaches to shape the work. She blends attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, and emotionally-focused methods as fits each person. She will talk through which methods might help and make a plan together.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Vivian recognizes that. She asks questions, listens, and helps people find practical ways to change patterns that cause pain. If you want to explore next steps, she guides the intake and scheduling process.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it helps people understand trust, closeness, and fears of abandonment. Client-Centered Therapy centers on being heard and accepted; this approach helps people clarify what matters to them and make choices that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from more convenient settings. It can also support shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or sessions without video if that helps you focus. Talk with the therapist during intake about what will work best for your routine and needs.
