Victor's approach to therapy is client-centered and trauma-informed. He mainly utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. In addition to utilizing these therapies in a talk-therapy context, he often uses Art Therapy. He is in the process of obtaining EMDR Certification, which is especially useful for the processing of trauma. Lastly, he is currently also working on a Life Coaching Certification.

Clients should expect to complete sessions with Victor feeling more at peace than when they began. They should also feel challenged to work on self-reflective exercises at the end of each session, which at times incorporate hands-on, practical pieces.
