About Vivette
Vivette Lanzas is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with many years of experience helping people face stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. She listens with respect and compassion and aims to create a space where people can sort out problems and feel heard. Vivette emphasizes practical steps and honest conversation to help people move toward more manageable days.
Her approach begins with learning what matters most to each person and tailoring sessions to those goals. She blends methods that focus on thinking and behavior with approaches that attend to emotions and relationships. This allows her to address everyday struggles like communication problems, caregiver stress, and blended family issues while also attending to deeper concerns such as abandonment or attachment difficulties.
Vivette draws on cognitive behavioral tools to help change unhelpful thought patterns. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Emotionally-focused and dialectical strategies are added when emotions or relationship patterns need direct attention.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, collaborative planning, and steps they can try between sessions. Vivette works in North Carolina and communicates in English. She encourages anyone thinking about therapy to take that first step and complete the initial matching process to find a good fit.
With 26 years of clinical experience and a focus that includes adoption and foster care concerns, Vivette brings steady support and practical tools for people navigating family and personal transitions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about parenting or family roles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and offers concrete exercises to change them; it often helps with mood, worry, and day-to-day coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Vivette will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying tools together, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making scheduling more flexible. It also permits use of worksheets and behavioral exercises during or between sessions so people can practice new skills in real situations. Many therapists find that the same therapeutic tools translate well to remote sessions when rapport and clear goals are established.
