Vivette LanzasLCMHC

Vivette Lanzas is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She offers straightforward support for parents and individuals coping with family strain, grief around abandonment or adoption, and body image or caregiving stress. Her tone is practical and compassionate, aimed at people who need clear, usable help.

With 26 years of experience, Vivette draws on a mix of approaches to fit what each person needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and move toward meaningful actions. Cognitive behavioral strategies are used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. Emotion-focused work helps when emotions feel overwhelming or get in the way of connection.

Sessions focus on open conversation and a plan you can try between visits. Vivette listens closely, then suggests skills, perspectives, or experiments to try in real life. She adjusts pacing and goals based on how things are going.

People come to her for help with blended family tensions, attachment questions, divorce and separation stress, and coping after disasters. She also works with issues like commitment fears, communication breakdowns, eating and food-related concerns, guilt, and forgiveness.

Vivette is licensed in North Carolina as an LCMHC. She speaks English and asks clients to use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to her availability.

How her approaches shape online work

Vivette commonly uses acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps people clarify what matters most, accept difficult feelings, and take small steps toward meaningful action. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new, more helpful ways of thinking and behaving.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with clients about goals and preferences, then suggest what methods might fit best. Together they check in and adjust strategies as needed so the work matches what the person wants to change.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is offering appointments. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let someone join from a quieter spot or a place with fewer distractions, and they make it possible to continue work during life transitions without changing therapists.
