About Vivian

Vivian Roberts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, depression, and concerns about self-esteem. Vivian also supports people navigating family problems and issues related to attachment and abandonment.

Her approach is conversational and goal-focused. Sessions are grounded in clear techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotion-focused methods. She also uses attachment-based ideas and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when those fit the concern.

Vivian pays attention to how relationships shape feelings about self and others. She helps people notice patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Then she practices alternative responses together with the person so new habits can form.

Practical skills are part of most sessions. That can include strategies to reduce anxiety, ways to manage anger, and communication tools for difficult family conversations. She also addresses issues like body image, codependency, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and relationship commitment worries.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what matters at home. Vivian works with people who identify as LGBT and those with experience in alternative sexual cultures. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and collaborates on small, achievable steps to make everyday life less overwhelming.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape emotions and expectations. Online work using attachment ideas helps people notice their relationship patterns, understand triggers, and practice new ways of connecting or communicating.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against reality. In remote sessions CBT usually involves short exercises, practice between meetings, and simple behavior changes to lower anxiety and lift mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Vivian will discuss different ways of working and decide together which methods fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult. Some formats also require less bandwidth or allow phone-only conversations for shorter check-ins. Ask about current options when you schedule a first appointment to find a setup that matches your routine.
