About Silvie

Silvie Wilson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who blends mindfulness with practical, body-aware work. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by teaching simple ways to notice their body and thoughts. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 11 years of clinical experience in California to her practice.

Silvie often helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She supports those dealing with grief, addiction struggles, low self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also works with people facing career changes, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and sleep or eating difficulties.

Her sessions emphasize present-moment awareness and grounded body techniques. Silvie uses mindfulness to slow things down and DBT and CBT skills to build clearer habits. She also draws on attachment-based and client-centered ideas to explore how past relationships shape current patterns.

She uses personality tools such as Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram when helpful to deepen understanding. She can also offer astrological perspectives if a client wants that explored. Her style is collaborative - she treats each person as the expert on their life and works alongside them to find workable changes.

Silvie aims to help clients strengthen confidence, clarify values, and move toward meaningful goals. Her approach is practical and paced to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on small, steady steps that fit everyday life.

How mindfulness and skill-based work translate online

Silvie uses mindfulness therapy to help clients build awareness of bodily sensations and present-moment experience, which can calm anxiety and ground emotion in daily life. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns still affect current connections and helps people change repeating patterns. Client-centered therapy gives priority to the client's perspective and values, creating a gentle space to explore goals and choices.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs and goals. That might mean practicing body-focused awareness, learning CBT or DBT skills, or spending time understanding attachment patterns together.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, or family routines and can reduce travel time. They also allow for focused check-ins or skill practice without needing extra commute time. A therapist and client can adjust pacing and tools to suit weekly life and practical constraints.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
