About Aviva
Aviva Euripides is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 22 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions. She listens first to understand where things feel stuck and then works with each person to set practical goals.
Her approach blends several therapy styles to match what each person needs. She uses client-centered listening to prioritise the person's experience. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way. Mindfulness and narrative methods are also used to help people notice patterns and tell clearer stories about their lives.
Aviva trained at the University of California at Berkeley and attended New College of California, where clinical work focused on supporting diverse communities. She has supervised and trained other clinicians across settings from counseling offices to acute mental health facilities, which has broadened her understanding of clinical practice.
In sessions she aims for work that is practical and grounded while informed by clinical thinking. She pays attention to how small changes in everyday habits and thinking can shift feeling and behavior. People often leave sessions with clear next steps to try between meetings.
She has long experience offering counseling by phone and online and is comfortable using those formats. Scheduling tends to include live chat times and earlier or weekend slots for video or phone meetings, so readers should confirm current session options before booking.

How Aviva uses talk therapy and online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person, helping them feel understood and guiding decisions about next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits and then try different actions to change feelings and behavior. Mindfulness Therapy teaches paying attention to the present moment so habitual reactions can be noticed and adjusted.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches over time. Your feedback guides which tools get used in sessions.
Aviva has extensive experience providing counseling by phone and online and is familiar with how those formats work. The practical benefits include easier fitting sessions into a busy day, options for shorter check-ins, and the ability to schedule outside standard business hours. Readers should confirm current session options before booking so they know which formats are offered and can choose what fits their routine.
