My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

My overall experience with CBT has been rewarding, both for my clients and for my own personal growth as a provider. Using a collaborative and client-centered approach to help clients develop healthier thought patterns and behaviors, CBT has been particularly effective in fostering resilience and promoting lasting change.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

My experience with mindfulness-based therapy has helped many clients develop healthier coping mechanisms and improve their overall quality of life.

Psychoeducation

Integrated with medication management, I provide psychoeducation to my clients for the goal of improving their quality of life and well-being. By providing knowledge about mental health conditions, challenges, and coping strategies, my clients and I can collaborate to develop personal management skills and an understanding of their treatment options.

I was being honest in my consultation about my experience with medication (adderall) and Victoria basically past judgement to me and said I was a red flag. I have NEVER had addictive behavior and was immediately offended. I thought that honesty was the best policy and instead, I was be reprimanded for it. Victoria does not create a safe space for patients to be honest.

Victoria has been very effective in my treatment, from ordering a genetic test to suggesting medication. She's open to my ideas and brings her own experience to each session. I feel confident in her ability to treat my mental health issues.
