Aviva Euripides, LMFT

Compassionate, practical therapy for everyday struggles

About Aviva

Aviva Euripides is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with 22 years of experience. She offers straightforward, practical support for common struggles like anxiety, depression, stress, addiction, and relationship concerns.

Background and approach

Her approach centers on listening first and helping people figure out what will work for them now. She begins by tracking what’s already helping and what’s getting in the way.

That gives a clear picture of goals and small steps to try. Sessions are focused and outcome-oriented while staying responsive to each person’s pace and needs.

Aviva blends several therapy methods to match the situation. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person’s experience.

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behaviors. Mindfulness and narrative elements help people find new perspectives and calm in daily life.

Her background includes graduate study at the University of California, Berkeley and training at New College of California, where she worked with diverse communities. She has also supervised and trained other clinicians in settings from outpatient counseling to acute mental health facilities.

Aviva has substantial experience delivering counseling by phone and online. She commonly schedules live chat sessions during weekday daytime hours and offers early morning, evening, and weekend video or phone appointments.

She aims to make therapy fit into busy lives.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Aviva commonly uses client-centered therapy to make the session feel personal and respectful; this approach emphasizes listening and following the client’s priorities so they set the pace and topics. She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She will discuss different methods, try things out, and adjust based on what helps most. The goal is to match techniques to the client’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than to apply a single method rigidly.

Online therapy offers flexibility for varied schedules and needs. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues during deeper sessions, while phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can work well for brief check-ins, practical coaching, or between-session support. These options help clients integrate therapy into work, parenting, and daily life without extra travel.
