About Vivian

LPC-MHSP (Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider) Vivian Windsor has 35 years of clinical experience in Tennessee. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. Vivian combines practical therapeutic methods to help people manage symptoms and make concrete changes.

Vivian uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful working relationship and to listen closely to what matters most to each person. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going, and then works on small, manageable changes. Mindfulness techniques are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

She also brings Motivational Interviewing into conversations about substance use and other behaviors when people are weighing change. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and track progress between sessions. These approaches are chosen to match the issue at hand and the person’s own goals.

Practically, sessions focus on developing coping skills, managing cravings or anger, addressing codependency and family of origin issues, and handling life events such as divorce or separation. Vivian has particular experience with first responder issues, guilt and shame, and concerns common to young adults, men, and women.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach still center the person’s priorities and aim to build a collaborative working relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests small behavior changes; it adapts well to session work that includes homework and short skill practice between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and simple awareness exercises to reduce reactivity and worry; these can be practiced during or between online visits. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That choice can be adjusted over time as needs change, and sessions are collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a full visit is not possible. Discuss practical needs and scheduling when arranging the first session to ensure the format chosen fits everyday life.
