About Silvie
Silvie Wilson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 11 years of professional experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and addiction. She also helps people facing relationship or intimacy-related issues and those wrestling with life changes like parenting, career shifts, or burnout.
Silvie often incorporates somatic, or body-awareness, practices alongside talk therapy to help people notice how stress and past hurts show up in the body. She draws on approaches like attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) to meet different needs. She uses personality tools such as Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram to deepen understanding when clients find that useful.
She has experience working with Spanish-speaking clients and has worked extensively with teens and young adults in past roles. Silvie uses practical strategies to address fears, negative beliefs, and patterns that interfere with everyday functioning. She may introduce movement, breathwork, or grounding practices when appropriate to help people manage intense feelings.
Her stated aim is to help people recognize strengths, build motivation, and develop belief in a purposeful future. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills people can use between meetings. People interested in astrology can ask about incorporating those insights into sessions.
Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details so arrangements match personal needs.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Silvie commonly uses attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice ways they seek safety or approval in relationships. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing out different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.She also draws on client-centered principles, which emphasize listening and following the client's agenda. Together, therapist and client decide which mix of approaches fits best. That collaborative process helps shape goals and the skills practiced between sessions.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are more convenient. Some people find video sessions helpful for working on emotion regulation and interpersonal patterns, while others prefer phone check-ins for brief support or when bandwidth is limited. Discuss format preferences during the intake so arrangements support everyday life and the goals of therapy.
