Vivienne Laurent

About

With vintage postcards scattered like emotional breadcrumbs, Vivienne Laurent transforms therapy into a cinematic journey through unspoken landscapes of the human heart. Her sessions weave classic film metaphors into psychological insights, turning each conversation into an unexpectedly lyrical exploration of healing and self-discovery.

Backstory

Three failed suicide attempts by age sixteen taught Vivienne Laurent that death wasn't her calling—helping others live was. The vintage postcards and film reels she discovered while hiding from her abusive stepfather became her lifeline, each black-and-white scene offering escape routes her young mind desperately needed. Psychology studies at the University of Havenwood felt like learning a new language, one that finally gave words to the chaos she'd survived, and when Clara—a girl whose anxiety mirrored her own teenage terror—found peace through Vivienne's cinematic metaphors, the broken became the healer. Nobody expected the former foster kid with scars on her wrists to revolutionize therapy, but Vivienne's practice now thrives on the radical idea that sometimes the wounded make the best guides through darkness.
