I still love what I do after 26 years. I have extensive experience in Christian Counseling, Addiction, PTSD, Trauma, Sex-Offenders, and Obsessive-Compulsive behaviors. I currently am NOT providing therapy for couples or families. I have worked with a variety of clients ranging from ages 7 to 89, but am currently only working with adults. I am independently licensed in 3 different states as a Marriage and Family Therapist and independently licensed in 1 state as an Addiction Counselor. I believe everyone has a "gift," something that they are called to do, and Counseling is mine. I care about my clients and have the innate ability to "zone" in on what is going on with them. I use Emotional Focus Therapy, Strength-Based, Trauma-Informed, Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but it really depends on the clients I am seeing. I admire anyone who wants to make a change and is willing to reach out and ask for help. I am here for you if you are that person. **** It's very important to remember to provide a 24-hour notice or a minimum of 2 hours (if an emergency comes up) notice if you are not going to make your session, so that you are not charged a no-show fee. ****** I am only accepting individual clients at this time. Although the appointment planner may allow it, please do not schedule appointments more than 2 weeks out. My later times are limited and I would like all my clients to have a chance to one of these slots, plus it cuts back on no-shows since we do not know if we will be able to make an appointment that far in advance. Thank you for your understanding.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
My goal is to help my clients reach their goals. I find joy and satisfaction when I see them achieve what they are searching for. I offer a safe environment, honesty, understanding, and respect. I do expect a 24 hour notice if you are not able to attend. You will not be charged if a 24-hour notice is given. I do understand there are emergencies that come up so I will take each situation into consideration.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength is my faith in Jesus Christ and my personal experiences. It allows me to be able to understand, show my clients respect, how much I care about them, and how I will help provide them the tools they need to overcome whatever issue they are seeking therapy for.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My forte is working with trauma/abuse, couples, blended families, obsessive compulsive behaviors, and addiction. As a Christian therapist, I feel I can best serve clients who are dealing with these types of issues.
Christian Counseling
I use therapy utilizing a biblical principals to address emotional issues and relationship support. Client's can cope with challenges when using the principles of Christianity as support. I have been using this type of therapy for approximately 25 plus years and find it to be very successful.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT helps to address our thoughts emotions and behaviors. I utilize it to help with addiction, anxiety, and emotional concerns such as grief and depression. I have been using this type of therapy for approximately 25 plus years and find it to be very successful.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for clients who struggle with trauma, attachment wounds, or difficulty managing intense emotions. I use EFT to help clients identify and process core emotions that drive their distress, explore patterns from past relationships, and safely express feelings in session. This approach allows clients to build self-compassion, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others, ultimately fostering resilience, emotional security, and improved overall well-being. I have also used it with individuals who deal with PTSD, depression and anxiety. I have been using this type of therapy for approximately 20 plus years and find it to be very successful.
Eclectic
I have seen such a variety of different clients that I have used Eclectic therapy that involves combining multiple theoretical orientations and techniques to help each client resolve their issue. I have been successful using this in the past 25 years.

Victoria immediately made me feel comfortable and was direct about her approach. I appreciate that she is up front and honest in her methods. Her Christian worldview was an important factor in me looking for a therapist.
