Dr. Erika Vivyan

Hi y’all! My name is Dr. Erika Vivyan, and I became a Licensed Psychologist in Texas because I want to help kids, teens, and young adults to grow into confident, happy humans. My specialties include the treatment of anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). I am also trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy and Parent Management Training, which help with meltdowns and tantrums.

I approach sessions with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) lens, which means you're always getting the best care that research has found to treat anxiety, OCD, and many other types of difficulties. First, I spend a few sessions learning about you, then we discuss diagnoses and treatment plan. For each weekly session, we will be learning and practicing new things, then I'll give you something to practice at home over the next week.

My goal as a psychologist is to build bravery, courage, flexibility, and confidence both during and between sessions. Most people start therapy with something they are very scared of, whether it's going to a new school or joining a sports team, and by the end of therapy, they prove to themselves that they can do these things! Plus they learn a lot about their emotions and helpful strategies along the way.
