About Vivian

Vivian Pazos is a Florida Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 20 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and concerns about life purpose.

She helps people learn grounding and breathing techniques to reduce anxiety. She supports clients in noticing triggers and building practical coping skills. For people facing panic attacks or mood difficulties, she offers straightforward strategies to manage symptoms day to day.

When relationships or family conflict are the focus, she guides people toward clearer communication and peaceful conflict resolution. She teaches basic assertive communication skills so difficult conversations can feel more manageable. She also addresses separation and infidelity concerns with an emphasis on problem solving and next steps.

Vivian works with issues many experience in midlife, including questions about motivation, confidence, and life purpose. She helps clients talk through where they are now and what matters next, noticing small changes that can affect direction over time.

Sessions are conducted in English and Spanish. She practices in Florida as an LMFT and uses approaches grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online process.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions

Vivian uses practical, evidence-based approaches that focus on skills people can use right away. One common approach she relies on teaches grounding exercises and paced breathing to reduce acute anxiety and calm panic symptoms. These techniques are short, practiceable, and useful during stressful moments.

Another approach emphasizes behavioral strategies for mood and motivation. This involves breaking goals into small steps, tracking what helps, and adjusting routines to increase confidence and activity. That method is helpful for depression, low motivation, and midlife questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with each client and decide together which techniques match the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also allows practicing skills in everyday settings and bringing real-life situations into session for discussion.
