Our therapists provide cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) services in Rhode Island.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 21 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-informed mental health care in community and outpatient settings. I work with adults and children experiencing PTSD, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, grief and loss, and major life transitions. My clients often feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain, looking for relief from distress, healthier coping skills, or greater self-understanding. I strive to create a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely heard, and I work with each client to build on their strengths and move toward lasting change.

My approach is warm and collaborative—meaningful change happens when you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move at your own pace. I specialize in anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. I tailor our work to your needs, recognizing there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing.

It's a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they find healing, strengthen their faith, and pursue their goals. My hope is that each person feels seen, valued, and supported as they grow. I take time to understand your story and what matters to you. I'm here to meet you with care and respect. I'd be honored to connect—please make an appointment to start.

Vivian Ng is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Rhode Island with over 14 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.
