About me

Hi, I’m Victoria Pass, LMHC, LPC, a Black therapist, wife, mother, and proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community with over 5 years of experience. I provide telehealth therapy to adults in Massachusetts and Connecticut, offering a trauma-informed, empowerment-based space for healing, growth, and self-acceptance. My approach integrates existential therapy, CBT, and a strength-based lens to help you explore meaning, build resilience, and create lasting change. i will be accepting new referrals in July!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and begin building a foundation of trust and safety. I’ll invite you to share what brings you to therapy, what you hope to work on, and what’s most important to you right now. We’ll explore your background, current challenges, and goals at a pace that feels comfortable. I’ll also answer any questions you have about the therapy process so you feel informed and supported as we move forward together. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling heard, understood, and hopeful about the path ahead.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths as a therapist include creating a safe, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen and valued. I bring a warm, compassionate, and grounding presence, helping clients explore their experiences with curiosity and self-acceptance. I’m skilled at integrating insight-oriented exploration with practical coping strategies, supporting clients in both understanding themselves more deeply and making meaningful, empowered changes. My approach is deeply culturally responsive and honors each client’s unique story, values, and identity.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal clients are adults who are ready to explore their stories with honesty and self-compassion. Many are navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, identity exploration, or trauma recovery, and are seeking a safe, affirming space to process their experiences. I especially enjoy working with clients who: Are seeking purpose or direction and want to align their lives with their values Struggle with anxiety, self-esteem, or people-pleasing patterns Identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, or are parents, caregivers, or helpers supporting others Desire to build self-acceptance, confidence, and resilience through insight and action Together, we focus on empowerment, authenticity, and growth, helping you feel more grounded and connected to who you truly are.

My treatment methods

Existential

In my practice, I integrate existential therapy to help clients explore meaning, values, and personal responsibility. I support clients in examining how they relate to themes such as freedom, choice, identity, and mortality, and how these influence their emotional experiences and decision-making. By fostering awareness of their authentic self and life purpose, clients are empowered to make intentional choices that align with their values and create a greater sense of fulfillment and direction.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. Together, we explore the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and develop practical strategies to promote healthier coping, balanced thinking, and meaningful behavioral change. This approach empowers clients to build insight and create lasting shifts in how they respond to life’s challenges.

Strength-Based

I integrate a strength-based approach to help clients recognize and build upon their inherent resilience, skills, and inner resources. By focusing on what is working well and amplifying existing strengths, clients gain confidence and a deeper sense of empowerment to navigate challenges, achieve goals, and foster personal growth.

I feel that Victoria's approach is very reassuring and comforting in order to break down my emotions and create solutions or simplify them. Her insight has helped me tremendously with labeling my emotions and am very thankful to have found such a warm and open minded therapist like her!
