Vivian Litterell, LPC

Vivian Litterell is an Oklahoma Licensed Professional Counselor with 28 years of experience. She helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, grief, parenting strain, and the ups and downs of life. Her approach is straightforward and supportive for those who need practical tools and steady encouragement.

She focuses on helping clients understand patterns that keep them stuck and then changing those patterns step by step. Vivian uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and client-centered techniques to keep the work grounded in each person’s goals. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods help when someone needs short-term direction or a boost to stay on track.

Vivian has many years working across age groups and life stages in Oklahoma. That background gives her familiarity with common challenges like family conflict, caregiving stress, and adjusting to big life changes. She also supports people processing trauma, abuse, and related symptoms by combining practical coping strategies with careful listening.

Sessions are aimed at clear, manageable goals. Expect a mix of talking, skill-building, and simple homework to practice between meetings. The tone is respectful and down-to-earth, with a focus on what will help in daily life.

Her practice includes work on ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, body image, attachment and commitment worries, and issues tied to divorce or blended families. Vivian offers in-person perspective from Oklahoma and adaptable approaches to match each person’s needs.

How Vivian’s Approaches Work Online

Vivian commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small changes to see what helps. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters most to the person seeking help.

Motivational interviewing is another tool she uses when someone needs help finding internal reasons to change. It involves short conversations that build motivation and clarify personal goals rather than pushing a set plan. These approaches can be mixed depending on the issue and the person’s goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the first sessions. Vivian works with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversation and exercises, phone may be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging can help people check in between meetings. These options make scheduling more flexible and can help therapy fit into a busy life.
