About
As an Asian American Christian, I approach serving others by honoring both their cultural and individual values.
Vivian Ng is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Rhode Island with over 13 years of experience working with children, adults, and families in community- and school-based settings. She approaches her clients with an eagerness to listen and learn their stories. As her clients allow, she walks into their spaces of hopelessness and distress to sit with those feelings, and she navigates her clients to a place of measurable change. The goal is long-term empowerment. The approach is relational and collaborative.
Vivian completed her Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from Providence College and received her Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Assumption College. There is a vulnerability that comes with the seat of a client, and Vivian works to honor her client’s trust and confidence by providing strength-based counseling through techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, coping skills training, and mindfulness techniques with adults. Additionally, Vivian utilizes affect-regulation strategies and play therapy with children, as well as parent-skills training and psycho-education with parents. She is also a Christian, and if clients are interested, welcomes the integration of faith and spirituality into the conversations.
Accommodating and attuned to both the clients’ and her own emotional world, Vivian aims to support her clients through navigating their thoughts and identifying their associated feelings and resulting choices. Her work is stage-appropriate, collaborative, and driven by best practices that move the client toward actualized healing.

Career counseling, sometimes called career coaching, helps individuals make informed career decisions. This type of counseling is led by one of our Providence therapists who is trained to provide career development support.
Career counseling works to help you navigate your professional career and offer valuable information, such as required skill sets and/or education, regarding a particular position you may be considering. The following are common focuses of conversation that will help your career counselor best help you:
Career counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Career counseling can last for weeks, months, or even years. It all depends on the goals that you’re looking to accomplish and whether you continue to want/need a counselor to help you reach your goals. Either way, our career counselors are here and ready to help you get on the right track.
Any worker who fails to keep their skills current often runs into difficulties if the time comes to change jobs or even career paths. Another problem is when both young and old alike fail to develop their computer skills. Basic computer literacy is not difficult, not even for the technically challenged. In fact, there is very little that’s “technical” with using popular software programs. Those without such skills are going to have to play catchup if they need to move on in their jobs or careers. The best advice out there is to not fall behind, otherwise you risk losing out to the competition.
Career counseling is a great place to start for anyone looking to compete in the jobs market. At its most basic level, good career counseling will assist in these two key areas:
The career counselors at Thriveworks Counseling in Providence, RI can fulfill the above areas and more. They can help you understand your strengths and weaknesses, as well as help you harness your strengths and improve your weaknesses. If you’re looking for greater career success or happiness, don’t hesitate to work with a member of our career counseling team.
The biggest challenge of all for most people is being unprepared and ill-equipped. Anyone who needs to suddenly relaunch a career or is just starting out has to be ready. The longer someone is out of work, the more difficult it can be to get into meaningful employment. If you’re stuck in a rut, consider getting in touch with a vocational counseling service provider without delay.
Choosing careers guidance and support is often a very wise move for anyone at any age. A good counselor can help to uncover problems and suggest solutions to all kinds of things you may not have otherwise spotted. Some of these will include the following (in no particular order):
If you’re having difficulty resetting your career or finding gainful employment, call Thriveworks Counseling in Providence, RI to schedule an appointment with our career counselors today.
