Vivian DuarteCounselor, LAC

About

Hello! I specialize in working with Couples, Teenagers (15+) and Adults, navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma, self-esteem, stress, grief and loss, and identity exploration. In our work together, I pull from evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, CBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and trauma-informed care. For Couples, I am trained in Gottman Method and EFT which are the best approaches for treating couples. I also incorporate holistic practices such as breathwork, inner child work, somatic techniques to support healing on a deeper level. My role is to walk alongside you as you explore what’s working in your life, what’s feeling heavy, and what healing and growth could look like for you. Therapy with me is flexible and collaborative — we’ll go at your pace, together. My goal is to provide a safe, affirming, and compassionate space for you to be seen, heard, and supported without judgment.
