About Silvie
Silvie Wilson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with young adults and Spanish-speaking clients on concerns like stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, self-esteem, and motivation.
Silvie uses body-awareness approaches alongside talk therapy to help people notice how stress and trauma show up in the body. She integrates tools to address fears, negative beliefs, and the effects of abuse, aiming to help clients feel more grounded and able to take next steps.
She also draws on personality frameworks such as Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram to deepen understanding of how someone thinks and reacts. When clients want it, she can discuss astrological insights as an added lens for reflection.
Sessions focus on clear skills and practical strategies. That can include learning ways to regulate strong emotions, adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns, and building motivation for everyday goals like work or school. Silvie makes room for the difficult feelings that come from loss, relationship strain, or big life changes.
Her approach centers on collaboration. She works with each person to identify strengths, set goals, and try methods that fit their life. People can expect straightforward conversation, body-based exercises, and tools they can use between sessions.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Silvie commonly uses attachment-based methods and cognitive-behavioral techniques together to address relationship wounds and unhelpful thinking. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how those patterns affect reactions and trust. Cognitive-behavioral work focuses on identifying thought patterns and practicing concrete skills to shift behaviors and mood.She treats the choice of approach as collaborative. Early sessions are used to map what feels most pressing and to try different methods. The therapist and client decide together which techniques best match goals, comfort level, and daily life demands.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, support regular check-ins during school or work breaks, and allow for shorter skill-focused meetings when needed. It also makes ongoing work possible for Spanish speakers across California without extra travel.
