About Silvie
Silvie Wilson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. She brings 11 years of practice to sessions and speaks both English and Spanish. She helps people manage anger alongside related problems like stress, anxiety, and relationship strain.
Silvie focuses on practical, person-centered work. She asks questions, listens closely, and helps people notice patterns that get in the way. She uses approaches that pay attention to emotions, attachment, and thinking habits so clients can try new behaviors in daily life.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with people facing trauma, grief, addiction, and identity concerns. She blends emotion-focused and cognitive tools to help with difficult feelings, impulsivity, and self-critical thinking. She also brings attention to how early relationships shape responses to stress and anger.
Sessions may include learning new coping skills, practicing emotion regulation, and checking how thoughts influence actions. She draws on client-centered principles to keep the work collaborative and respectful. Personality tools are sometimes used to clarify strengths and patterns when helpful to the client.
Silvie offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

Approaches for managing emotion and behavior online
Silvie often draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. This approach helps people see patterns in connections and learn new ways to feel safe and regulated in relationships. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce anger and anxiety. CBT is useful for tackling negative thinking and building practical coping steps.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether to focus on emotions, thinking patterns, or skills-building and then adjust as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face to face from different locations, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short updates, skill practice between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family life.
