About Vivette
Vivette Lanzas is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 26 years of experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, and addresses parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, and depression. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment questions, blended family issues, body image, caregiver stress, and other family-related problems.
Vivette uses a conversational approach in sessions. She listens to what matters most and works with clients to set practical steps. Sessions focus on real-life skills people can use between meetings, such as coping strategies and clearer communication methods.
Her practice draws from several evidence-based frameworks. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take manageable actions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
Clients can expect straightforward talk about current problems and small, practiceable tools to try at home. Vivette pays attention to how family background, adoption or foster care experiences, and attachment issues shape relationships and feelings.
She works in English and practices in North Carolina as an LCMHC. The process begins with a clear plan and adjustments as needed, aiming to make sessions useful for everyday life and the specific challenges someone brings.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Vivette often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try different patterns that reduce distress. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable feelings. DBT teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and getting through high-stress moments.Choosing the right approach is part of the early conversations. She will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences, adapting the plan as needed. The decision about which tools to use is collaborative and revisited over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time for appointments. Bringing notes, a brief list of goals, or situations to discuss can help make remote sessions focused and practical.
