Viviana Vences

My communication style

I create a warm, supportive, and culturally responsive environment where you feel safe to express yourself openly. My sessions are collaborative and client-centered. I incorporate empathy, active listening, and encouragement to foster connection while providing evidence-based strategies.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to need someone, especially growing up in a first-generation household. I didn't always have the support I needed. I chose this path to be the person I wish I had when I was struggling, offering a safe space with kindness and understanding.

My goals for you

We'll mold therapy around what's most important to you, honoring your cultural background, values, and lived experiences. We move at a pace that honors your growth. I use techniques to help you create change, not just talk about it, celebrating small wins: softer mornings, proud moments, times when something clicks.

Our first session

The first session is about getting to know each other in a relaxed, no-pressure way. You can be fully yourself, whether you're ready to share a lot or prefer to take your time. I'll ask gentle questions, but my focus is on listening and understanding your story. By the end, I hope you'll feel seen and supported.
