A little about Victoria…
I use an open and collaborative approach. My work is attachment-based and humanistic. I integrate elements of somatic and experiential therapies such as IFS or “parts work” to help clients tolerate difficult emotions and stress. I combine these elements with trauma modalities such as SE or EMDR to make your treatment efficient yet gentle.
I have 18 years of experience as a licensed psychologist. I have worked in public mental health settings, both in a large community clinic in Los Angeles and most recently as the director of psychology at Austin State Hospital and in private practice. I love animals, yoga, being outdoors, travel, books and film. I am passionate about Huichol yarn painting.
Change is often uncomfortable so having a trusted ally and skilled clinician at your side can be essential. My goal is to help you along your path towards a balanced and healthy life. My approach is strength-based and positive. I have worked with hundreds of children, adolescents, adults and their families on almost every kind of issue. I work to balance empathy and sensitivity and yet help people find healing, move forward, and make meaning from their experiences. Nothing is wrong with you. It is possible to change negative, self-defeating patterns and emerge into a fulfilling life with greater freedom, expansion and joy.
