About Fulivia

Dr. Fulivia Cannady is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 15 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, depression, LGBT issues, eating and sleeping problems, and ADHD. She also focuses on abandonment, attachment issues, body image, codependency, communication problems, and related challenges.

She holds a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology with a specialization in Mental/Behavioral Health, plus a Master of Science and Bachelor of Science. As a Licensed Professional Counselor she has worked across mental health and social services settings for over 15 years. Her background includes providing services for children, teens, and adults facing emotional and behavioral concerns.

Her stated approach is client-centered and strength-based, with elements from several therapeutic models. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based methods, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as tools to address feelings and relationship patterns. Sessions focus on increasing awareness and insight, and on building practical steps forward.

In sessions she emphasizes collaboration. She listens to each person’s story and helps set goals that matter to them. Her work includes talking through patterns, processing feelings, and practicing new ways of responding to stress, mood, and relationships.

She welcomes clients who are ready to try something different and hopes to support people as they make changes. To begin, she asks prospective clients to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session so they can discuss goals and next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on noticing and naming emotions and relationship patterns. It helps people recognize hard-to-name feelings and how those reactions affect connections. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking practical steps despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It often uses small behavioral experiments and skills to notice what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean focusing on attachment patterns, using ACT exercises for values-driven action, or applying CBT strategies for mood and anxiety. The choice is practical and reviewed as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people continue work while traveling or between in-person commitments. Discuss available formats and scheduling during the initial matching and planning step to see what will work best for day-to-day life.
