She's a lifesaver and an awesome therapist.

Reviewed February 2023

Victoria had been great. I've been working with her for just over a year and have made so much progress that I wouldn't have been able to make without her help. She listens and remembers what I've said across second and she sets homework and has a plan for what we are going to be doing which helps.

More about Victoria

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida and a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist. It has been my pleasure to foster great rapport with my previous clients by helping them navigate the difficulties and challenges of their lives. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work in a wide variety of settings. I specialize in individual counseling and I have worked with children, adolescents, and families.

My specialties include: anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, domestic violence, and immigration/acculturation problems.

My theoretical orientation is eclectic, combining cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavioral approaches with mindfulness and motivational interviewing.

My approach to therapy comes from the belief that every individual is their own expert and possesses the inner wisdom that guides them to find the right path, and my role as a counselor, is to help uncover your inner wisdom and resiliency.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Victoria's style of counseling is highly evidence based, which works really well for me because I'm highly logical and enjoy learning about the human body. She's the first therapist I've had that I feel truly understands my needs, and strives to help me make progress in terms of my mental health beyond simply listening.

Victoria is an excellent mental health professional. I have seen other therapists, but this is the first time I can establish rapport with one. Not only does she knows the tools to help her clients, she is also compassionate and kind. Since I am a scientist, I really like that she explains to me the biological and psycopathological basis of my condition, I feel that she can speak my language. After 2 months working with her, I have developed skills and self-care routines that have improved my mental health. I am still a work in progress, but my quality of life has improved since. Cannot recommend her enough!
