Victoria OConnor

I’m Victoria, an LPC with over 7 years of experience working with survivors of trauma. I work with clients who feel stuck and keep asking themselves, “why can’t I just move on from this?” If you’re struggling to trust others after an abusive relationship, or find that you can't stop replaying a painful experience from your childhood, or maybe you’re a new parent stuck in survival mode and overwhelmed with anxiety and stress, know that there is hope and healing and the possibility for change. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to reconnect with yourself again.

My approach is trauma-informed and person-centered, and I often incorporate evidence-based trauma therapies such as EMDR Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I believe it is essential to first create a safe and collaborative relationship with clients before diving deeper into processing painful experiences. Throughout the therapeutic process, I can help you gain tools to manage stress, understand your trauma responses and triggers, develop more helpful and true beliefs about yourself, and feel more like you again.

In our first session, we will explore your background, talk about your therapy goals and what you are hoping to change, and I will gather some important history so I know how to best help and support you. You can trust that I will meet with you compassion and consistency as we work together towards your healing.
