Approaches used and what to expect from online sessions

Victoria practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is commonly used for anxiety, stress, and depression. EMDR works with disturbing memories and reactions, using guided processing to reduce their intensity over time.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about current problems, goals, and comfort with different methods. Together they decide whether CBT, EMDR, or a mix fits the person's needs and pace.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel time, and have shorter check-in meetings when needed. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt home practice, skill exercises, and memory processing to work in whatever session format is arranged, helping therapy fit into everyday life without promising a specific service.
