Getting to know Victoria James
** Please expect a call from the office after making an appointment **
** The appointment will not be confirmed until the practice speaks with you directly **
Are you a busy professional struggling with impostor syndrome, life crises, or day-to-day stressors? Today, you are one step closer to a new you—one who feels empowered and on a positive path to growth and change. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a fulfilling life. While you cannot change the difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.
With a Master’s in Social Work from the State University of New York, Stony Brook, and 16 years of experience, I utilize a collaborative, strengths-based approach informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Through this approach and various techniques, you will unearth long-standing behavioral patterns or negative perceptions that cause you distress. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, life transitions, crisis, trauma, and stress.
I enjoy working with young adults, entrepreneurs, creatives, college students, high achievers, other health and wellness professionals, lawyers, finance, and tech professionals.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The first session will be an Intake Assessment to get to know more about you and together we’ll identify targeted goals for treatment. During follow up sessions, you could expect to unpack baggage, process challenges, be challenged, gain insight, feel supported, encouraged, and may receive homework in between sessions. Transformation may feel hard at times and occurs outside of your therapy sessions.
