About Vivian

Vivian Tejera is a licensed clinical social worker who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She brings five years of clinical experience and more than 15 years working across counseling, education, healthcare, and social services to help clients navigate emotional and practical challenges. Her practice emphasizes a relationship-centered and collaborative style, adapting to what each session and person needs.

Vivian draws on several evidence-informed approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered work, existential perspectives, and trauma-focused techniques to tailor interventions to individual goals and circumstances. Vivian tends to work with clients to identify patterns, build coping skills, and foster personal growth while honoring each person’s unique context.

She encourages steady progress and frames change as a step-by-step process, inviting clients to explore concerns and try strategies that fit their daily lives. Vivian practices in Florida and offers services in English.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Vivian often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and developing practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT emphasizes values-driven action and accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while building psychological flexibility, useful for coping with life changes and persistent emotional pain.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Vivian works with each person to explore what feels most helpful, adjusting methods based on individual goals, preferences, and how someone responds over time, so the plan can evolve as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when life is unpredictable, and access regular support from a licensed professional in Florida without needing in-person visits.
