I have a long background in working with people who have interacted with the criminal justice system. This has given me first hand experience in witnessing how trauma, anger, depression, and anxiety negatively impacts not just the individual but also their families and partners. It has also given me the opportunity to educate people on themselves and seeing the gratifying process of change that happens as a result.

Welcome! My name is Victoria, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating life transitions, stress, grief, and anxiety.

Through graduate training and ongoing continuing education, I help clients process the past, better understand their patterns, and move toward healing and change.

I have over twenty years of experience working as a counselor. I believe in taking the time to invest in helping people see their own solutions to their problems. I prefer to walk with them on the journey to find these solutions as a shared approach. I sincerely do care about the person and getting to know each and every one I work with by meeting them where they are at. I am willing to incorporate some faith based (Christian) perspectives into treatment if asked yet I will not push this on you. I believe that we all have stories to tell and that these stories shape our every day life. My goal is to help people work on their anxiety, depression or other issues related to their daily lives in a way that they can become more active and healthy in their lives and relationships around them.

If you've spent a long time handling everything on your own, the idea of opening up in therapy can feel uncomfortable — maybe even a little vulnerable. You might be stuck in your head, second-guessing yourself, or repeating patterns you can't quite break no matter how hard you try. You don't need to have it all figured out before you reach out. You just need a willingness to start, and I'll meet you right there.

This is your journey - you’re driving, I’m sitting in the passenger seat to provide some direction when needed. Therapy is whatever you want it to be and I’m here for it!
