Hi, I’m Victoria Young, LPC-S a licensed therapist who helps women navigate the moments that overwhelm us most. Maybe you’re grieving a pregnancy loss no one else fully understands, carrying sadness with no neat timeline. Maybe motherhood looks nothing like you imagined ; you love your baby fiercely, but you’re also touched-out, sleep-deprived, and wondering where you went in all of it. Maybe you’re managing a new diagnosis while trying to hold everything else together, or figuring out what it looks like to build a full, connected life while living with HIV. Maybe you look completely fine on the outside , successful, capable, put-together while inside you’re running on anxiety, exhaustion, or a sadness you can’t quite name out loud. Maybe you’re simply trying to figure out who you are amid career pressure, relationship strain, & everyone needing a piece of you. I get it, genuinely. I’ve lived pieces of this myself the fertility struggles, the identity shifts of motherhood, the pressure to hold it all together while looking like I had it handled. That’s a big part of why this work matters so deeply to me, and why I show up fully for the women I work with. I also provide dedicated, compassionate support to women newly diagnosed with or living with HIV helping you process the emotional weight of diagnosis, navigate stigma, and move forward without shame. In our sessions, you’ll find a space with zero judgment just real, tailored support using CBT, mindfulness, and practical tools that fit your life, not a generic script. I specialize in reproductive loss, postpartum depression, sexual trauma, and high-functioning anxiety and depression, but at the core, my work is helping women feel less alone, less depleted, & more like themselves again.

Hello Friends! Are your children experiencing emotional or behavior problems and you need some help? Why not give therapy a shot! I have been a Social Worker for 17 yrs working in various fields and I'm passionate about play therapy and creating a calm/safe atmosphere for children to feel heard and validated while teaching them valuable social emotional skills along the way.
I primarily help with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment Disorder and other Trauma Related Disorders, and I am trained to work with children experiencing cognitive/learning disabilities and other neurodevelopmental concerns. I am only offering virtual therapy services at this time with the hope to expand into in-person services in the future.
I would love to assist you in meeting your child's needs! Please reach out so we can get started today!
