About Silvie
Silvie Wilson is a licensed marriage and family therapist who centers her work on helping people find meaning and direction. She blends talk-based approaches with attention to how the body holds stress. Sessions aim to help clients manage anxiety, process grief, and build confidence so they can move toward goals that matter to them.
Silvie draws on existential ideas about purpose and choice alongside attachment-based thinking about close relationships. She often uses client-centered listening to help people feel heard and understood.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools are used when practical skills are helpful for mood, impulse control, or coping with intense emotions. She has eleven years of professional experience working in California and offers services in English and Spanish.
Silvie incorporates somatic awareness to help people notice how stress shows up in the body and to develop personalized strategies for change. She also uses personality frameworks such as Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram when clients want that lens to better understand patterns. Silvie supports people dealing with trauma, addiction, parenting strain, relationship struggles, attention challenges, and life transitions.
Her approach emphasizes the client as the expert on their story while offering guidance to strengthen resilience and purpose. Practical steps, steady listening, and simple skills are part of how she works. Clients who prefer online options can connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
The goal is steady progress toward clearer goals and greater confidence in everyday life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Silvie combines Existential Therapy with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to help people find meaning, reconnect with themselves, and improve close relationships. Existential Therapy focuses on questions of purpose, choice, and values to help people make decisions that fit their life. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people form more supported ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel understood and can steer their own process.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Silvie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize meaning-making, relationship patterns, body awareness, or practical skills like CBT or DBT techniques.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video supports face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging helps keep progress steady between sessions. These options make it easier to work around schedules and to continue momentum when life gets busy.
