Grief counselors and therapists in Newtown Square, PA

Welcome! As a therapist, my mission is to cultivate a place for you to share your story and rediscover your strengths. I integrate my education, training, and lived experience to create an informed, compassionate practice built on mutual trust and safety. Contact me and we can begin to write your next chapters, together.

I genuinely belief that people are far more capable of change than they realize. My approach to therapy integrates evidence-based therapeutic and coaching strategies. Often people think therapy is only about problems I see it as a space for clarity and growth as well as an opportunity to learn better skills for life's challenges. I work with clients who experience various circumstances including, anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, addiction, divorce, caregiving, career guidance, anxiety, depression and trauma.

I am an LCSW, psychotherapist, with 12+ yrs experience in the Mental Health field. I have worked in many different Mental Health Settings such as: Residential, IBHS, Drug/Alcohol, and Community Based. Specializations include: CCTP, EMDR, and Anxiety, Depression.

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. (give me a chance, seniors. I'm older than I look and someone once called me wise!) I also specialize in trauma and understand how painful experiences can affect us emotionally, behaviorally, and relationally over time. Through graduate training and ongoing continuing education, I help clients process the past, better understand their patterns, and move toward healing and change.

With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I am passionate about supporting adults and couples as they navigate life’s transitions and pursue meaningful growth. Whether you are a college student or recent graduate adjusting to a new season of life, an individual facing anxiety or depression, or a couple preparing for marriage or working to strengthen your relationship, I strive to provide guidance that feels both supportive and practical.

My Christian faith shapes my personal values; however, I work with people from all backgrounds and beliefs. Faith-based perspectives are incorporated into counseling only if a client specifically desires it.

My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Life transitions—whether expected or unexpected—can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. Together, we can explore the challenges you are facing and work toward the emotional and personal goals that matter most to you.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing life changes, including college and post-college transitions, relationship challenges, marriage and premarital preparation, and parenting. I also support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and stress that often accompany these seasons of change. My background as a behavioral specialist in community mental health allows me to effectively support adults diagnosed with ADHD or autism spectrum disorder, as well as parents raising children with these diagnoses.

When working with individuals, I primarily use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My focus is on equipping you with practical tools and strategies so you can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience.
