About Vivian
Vivian Roberts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, anger, self-esteem, and issues related to LGBT identity. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns and other relationship patterns that cause distress.
Vivian draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centered approaches. She uses concrete conversation to help people name emotions that feel confusing or overwhelming. Sessions focus on what is happening between people and inside a person when emotions flare or connection feels out of reach.
Her work also includes practical skills from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. That can mean noticing thought patterns, learning emotion regulation skills, or practicing different ways of communicating. She aims to make sessions understandable and actionable so clients can test small changes between meetings.
Vivian has experience helping people with relationship patterns tied to avoidant or dependent tendencies, commitment concerns, codependency, and body image or sexual identity issues including kink and alternative sex culture. She also supports caregivers and people living with chronic illness or pain.
People who choose to work with Vivian begin with a short match process and then schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. She conducts work in English and is based in Colorado.
How Vivian uses EFT and attachment work online
Vivian commonly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with emotions that drive relationship patterns. EFT focuses on noticing emotional responses and on changing interaction cycles that keep people stuck. It is often used when strong feelings make connection difficult.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy, which looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and expectations. That approach helps people understand why certain situations trigger intense fear, withdrawal, or closeness-seeking behaviors. Together with a client-centered stance, these approaches prioritize the client's experience and perspective while exploring emotion and connection.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Vivian will collaborate with clients to decide when EFT, attachment ideas, or skill-focused tools from CBT and DBT best match a person's needs and goals. She helps people try methods and then adjusts based on what actually helps.

They can also let people choose sessions that do not require being on camera if that feels better for focused emotional work.
