About Fulivia
Dr. Fulivia Cannady uses a client-centered approach to guide people through difficult moments. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor who draws on 15 years of work in mental health and social services.
Her style is strengths-based and practical, focused on small changes that add up over time. Many parents and individuals find her steady, direct manner helpful when life feels overwhelming. She earned a Bachelor of Science, a Master of Science, and a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology with a specialization in mental and behavioral health.
Background and approach
She also serves as a Qualified Board Supervisor with the State of Mississippi for Licensed Professional Counselors. That background informs how she organizes care and supports clients toward clearer goals. Sessions tend to focus on concrete skills and real-life problem solving.
Dr. Cannady uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and take values-based actions. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns and on dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotional regulation.
Her experience includes work with children, teens, and adults who face a variety of mental, emotional, and behavioral challenges. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak openly. The work is collaborative: she listens first, then helps set practical next steps.
People who start therapy with Dr. Cannady can expect a supportive partner who helps them increase awareness, build coping skills, and move toward the life they want. She emphasizes empowerment, motivation, and clear, achievable goals.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation problems because it emphasizes small, meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and sleeping or eating issues. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current interactions and helps people develop healthier ways of relating to others.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may mix techniques from these approaches so work stays practical and tailored to the individual.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules or to continue care from different locations. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, review homework, and check progress between meetings, making therapy more accessible and easier to maintain over time.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
