About Fulivia

Dr. Fulivia Cannady is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years in mental health and social services. She works in Mississippi and welcomes people who have taken the step to seek help. Her approach puts the person at the center and builds on their strengths to find workable solutions.

Dr. Cannady uses a client-centered style that focuses on goals and practical change. She blends acceptance and action, paying attention to relationship patterns and daily habits that affect mood and behavior. Sessions are aimed at helping people notice what matters to them and take steps toward it.

Her background includes a Bachelor of Science, a Master of Science, and a doctorate in counseling psychology with a specialization in mental and behavioral health. She also serves as a Qualified Board Supervisor in Mississippi for Licensed Professional Counselors. That training informs how she structures sessions and supports growth over time.

Dr. Cannady has worked with children, teens, and adults facing a wide range of concerns. Typical areas she addresses include stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family issues, depression, eating and sleeping problems, and ADHD. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment patterns, body image, and codependency.

In sessions she aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk openly and gain insight. The work often involves processing emotions, building new skills, and finding clearer ways to communicate and set boundaries. She emphasizes collaboration and practical steps that fit daily life.

How these approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck from old patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people build more secure ways of relating. This can be helpful for codependency, trust issues, and communication problems. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, respect, and meeting people where they are; it supports self-understanding and motivation to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people meet with licensed professionals from different locations. Discussing scheduling and session length at the start helps match therapy to everyday routines and goals.
