About Aviva
Aviva Euripides is a California LMFT with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, anger, and life changes. She also helps with issues like addictions, grief, self-esteem, parenting challenges, and ADHD. Sessions are practical and goal-focused.
Aviva begins by listening to what is not working now. She maps out the pieces of a person nd looks for small changes that make daily life easier. Her style blends client-centered conversation with problem-solving tools drawn from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches.
She trained at the University of California at Berkeley and New College of California. Over the years she has supervised and trained other clinicians in settings that ranged from outpatient counseling to acute mental health facilities. That background informs how she organizes treatment and tracks progress.
In sessions she pays attention to how patterns show up in relationships and at work. She uses narrative and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand repeated patterns from the past. Then she moves to practical CBT-based strategies to change thinking and behavior where that helps.
Aviva has substantial experience providing counseling by phone and through online platforms. She treats the process as a collaboration, checking in on what helps and adjusting approaches as needed. People who want clear steps and reflective discussion often find this mix useful.
How Aviva uses online work and therapeutic methods
Aviva uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person nd what they want to change. That approach means the therapist listens first and helps you name goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to turn those goals into concrete steps by identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Mindfulness therapy is used to build attention and calm in moments of anger and stress; this can help reduce reactivity by practicing brief grounding or breathing exercises.Finding the right mix of methods is treated as a collaborative process. She will check in about what feels useful, try an approach, and adjust based on your goals and preferences. The plan changes if something is not helping.
Her biography notes experience with telephone and online platform counseling, though the exact session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. The therapist will discuss which format best fits practical needs such as quieter surroundings, bandwidth limits, or a preference to be on or off camera.
