Viviane Ngwa, LCSW

Viviane Ngwa is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and career concerns. She invites a straightforward, nonjudgmental conversation so clients can say what they need to say. Her approach centers on practical steps and clear goals to make daily life feel more manageable.

Viviane uses a mix of approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy skills are included when relationship feelings need careful attention.

Her background includes eight years of clinical experience and licensure as a licensed clinical social worker, with credentials in Illinois and Nevada. She has worked with people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, blended family issues, commitment and communication problems, infidelity, jealousy, and immigration-related stress among other concerns.

Viviane aims to make sessions practical and grounded. Conversations often include small experiments to try between meetings, focused skill practice, and straightforward problem solving tailored to the client's life. She supports people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, or relief from guilt and shame.

People who reach out can expect a collaborative, calm approach that focuses on what matters most to them. Viviane encourages taking the next step when someone is ready to work toward clearer direction and greater emotional balance.

How Viviane’s Methods Translate to Online Work

Viviane uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice hard thoughts and choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful when anxious thinking or avoidance gets in the way of daily goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns in thinking and behavior, then practice concrete alternatives to reduce distress and improve routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to emphasize and try small changes to see what fits the client’s life.

Session formats were not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. It also supports continuing work between sessions through homework, brief skill practice, and easier follow-up when life gets hectic.
