About Vivian

Vivian Fleming is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with 25 years of clinical experience based in Kentucky. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar challenges, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, anger, and ADHD. She also supports work on abandonment, caregiver stress, communication and control issues, and questions about life purpose.

Her work is practical and structured. She listens to current problems and helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She offers concrete skills to try between sessions and reviews what works. Conversations focus on immediate problems and next steps rather than abstract theory.

Vivian uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches. She may also draw on DBT skills and EMDR where appropriate. Sessions often combine talking, skill practice, and simple exercises to reduce symptoms and improve coping.

Her background includes long clinical experience with mood disorders and trauma-related concerns. She has worked with people facing caregiver strain, domestic violence effects, and complex emotional reactions like shame and dissociation. That experience informs how she structures treatment and what tools she recommends.

Sessions are conducted in English, and she accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes the short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Vivian often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior and then try small experiments to test alternatives. CBT sessions tend to focus on specific problems, short-term goals, and skill practice that clients can apply between sessions.

She also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and reflecting what the client says, which helps clarify problems and goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills can be taught as concrete tools for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling intense relationships.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Vivian will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She checks in on progress and adjusts the plan based on what the client notices is helpful.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can teach and coach CBT, DBT skills, and mindfulness exercises effectively through remote sessions, helping people practice tools in day-to-day life.
