About Vivian Fleming

As a licensed therapist with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions with compassion and expertise.

I bring a deep understanding of women’s experiences, workplace dynamics, and multicultural concerns. My approach is holistic, focusing on self-love, communication, healing from past wounds, and rediscovering personal purpose. I’m particularly skilled in addressing issues like isolation, shame, panic attacks, and relationship difficulties.

My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, cultural sensitivity, and collaborative healing. I work closely with clients to develop personalized strategies that honor their unique experiences and support their journey toward emotional wellness and self-discovery. Whether you’re struggling with mood disorders, life transitions, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I’m committed to walking alongside you with genuine care and professional guidance.

“I have a hard time connecting with therapists but Vivian has been thus far the best therapist I've been connected with and it has been worth the trial and error of getting here. She challenges my thinking, points out the truth even when I might not want to hear it and she reminds me of my goals when I stray away to keep me on track. I strongly recommend her!”
