About Viviane
Viviane Ngwa is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois with eight years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and career challenges. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Viviane aims to help people who want clearer emotional understanding and more workable daily routines.
Viviane draws on several therapy approaches to match how a person prefers to work. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and recurring emotional patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice values and take steps that fit those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered methods appear in sessions to sort out thinking patterns and strengthen communication skills.
In a typical session Viviane focuses on naming feelings, noticing how patterns repeat, and trying small, practical changes between meetings. She helps people talk through difficult emotions and practice different ways of responding. Sessions may include teaching skills, guided reflection, and setting short experiments to try in daily life.
Viviane has worked across settings for eight years and brings that practical experience to clinical work. Her Illinois LCSW credential is listed as LCSW. People who are balancing work, family responsibilities, or cross-border arrangements often ask about how therapy can fit into a busy schedule. The next steps are to review session options and pick a time that fits your routine.
How Viviane Integrates EFT and ACT in Remote Sessions
Viviane commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and track emotional patterns that show up in relationships and daily life. EFT work often focuses on recognizing attachment reactions and making different choices in connection and communication.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and to practice small, values-based actions. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts or feelings and still move toward goals that matter to them. Client-Centered elements keep the focus on the person’s experience and priorities during sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Viviane treats this as a collaborative process and she will help clients decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean blending EFT with ACT or using CBT or DBT skills when specific patterns or skills work is helpful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, not needing to travel, or choosing a session that does not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and skill practice to remote appointments to keep progress practical and aligned with everyday routines.
