About Vivia
Dr. Vivia Hill-Silcott is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Georgia with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, grief, self-esteem, addiction issues, trauma and abuse, and other everyday pressures. Sessions are held in English and she accepts international clients.
She focuses on practical conversations. She listens to what feels urgent and helps people name what is happening at home. She uses clear tools from approaches such as client-centered work, CBT, DBT, EFT, and mindfulness so people can try small changes between sessions.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She uses assessments sometimes to help identify patterns and clarify priorities. She pays attention to how identity and culture affect stress and coping, and she brings that into the work without jargon.
People who worry about relationships or parenting strain can expect direct skills practice. That can include learning ways to manage strong emotions, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and building clearer communication. She also addresses grief, shame, and issues tied to prejudice and discrimination.
Her background includes work with college students and young people from diverse backgrounds. That experience informs her focus on resilience and on helping people regain a sense of control. To get started, the reader completes a brief matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change in their relationships or daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage panic, or shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger interpersonal boundaries, which can be useful when anger, self-harm urges, or intense feelings arise.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to emphasize based on immediate concerns, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress and challenges become clearer.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people try skills in between sessions in real-life settings and bring those experiences back to discuss with the therapist. Licensed professionals will work with the client to arrange session logistics that fit their schedule and needs.
