About Viviane
LCSW in Illinois with 8 years of clinical experience, Viviane Ngwa helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and career questions. She practices several evidence-based methods and works with adults who want clearer thinking and better coping skills.
Viviane uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on practical skills, noticing patterns, and trying small changes between meetings. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at helping clients manage day-to-day problems more effectively.
She has a background working in the helping professions across different states and brings eight years of direct experience to her practice. That experience includes supporting people through immigration-related stress, issues tied to abandonment or adoption and foster care, and navigating blended family or fatherhood concerns.
Typical topics include communication problems, commitment and infidelity concerns, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and figuring out life purpose. Viviane also works with people supporting someone with an intellectual disability and with those coping with dependent personality patterns.
Work with her tends to combine talking through problems, practicing new behaviors, and checking what is actually working. The first session is used to identify goals and agree on a plan. Clients who want to explore coaching-style career work alongside therapy can do that within her stated specialities.

How Viviane applies therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and when people want clearer goals for life and work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms. It is practical and often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and day-to-day coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Viviane will review what you want to address and suggest which methods to try first. She adjusts the plan based on your goals and what helps in real life rather than sticking to a single protocol.
The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is tight, or avoid travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals generally use these sessions to combine guided conversation with practical exercises you can use between appointments.
