“I originally found Victoria through Zocdoc several years ago - after taking a break from therapy, I returned and I knew I wanted to resume my sessions through her. Victoria is thoroughly engaged during our sessions, remembers major (and minor!) details of previous sessions, and seems truly invested in my wellbeing. With what I need, I wouldn’t consider seeing anyone else - she is phenomenal.”

Getting to know Victoria McBride
Hi! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am passionate about supporting young adults and adults as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, as well as those facing relationship concerns, major life changes, and periods of uncertainty. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and honest—I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard and supported, while also being challenged to reflect, take accountability, and make meaningful changes in your life. I will work alongside you to identify patterns that may be holding you back, develop healthy coping strategies, strengthen your relationships, and build confidence in yourself.
My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can be vulnerable, gain insight, and feel empowered to move forward with intention. It can be difficult to take the first step toward therapy, but simply being willing to begin is an important step forward. It is never too late to invest in yourself and work toward a healthier, more fulfilling quality of life. I am here to provide support, guidance, and encouragement as you navigate that process, while helping you gain the insight and tools needed to create lasting change.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I prioritize creating a comfortable, supportive environment from the very beginning because I believe it is essential that you feel confident that I am the right fit for you. Building trust and rapport is an important part of the therapeutic process, and we will take the time to establish that foundation before diving deeper into treatment goals. I often tell my clients, “I will meet you where you are.” This means we will work together to identify meaningful goals and develop practical tools, while also making space to process current life stressors as they arise. You are the driving force in your own therapy, and my role is to support you, hold you accountable, and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors when appropriate. Therapy can be a powerful and rewarding investment in yourself, but meaningful change requires willingness, consistency, and a commitment to doing the work both inside and outside of sessions. My goal is to help you gain the insight, confidence, and tools needed to create lasting change and improve your quality of life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
1. Request an appointment
2. I will reach out to you directly via email to confirm the appointment. I will send you access to our portal (Simple Practice). Let me know if you prefer in-person or virtual appointments!
3. You will complete all the new client paperwork ASAP
4. I will submit your insurance to my billing company to obtain the benefit
5. We will have our first session (either in-person, or virtually) to discuss reasons for treatment, future goals, and scheduling preferences.

More information on payments and coverage
Understanding insurance and payment options can feel overwhelming, so I strive to make the process as simple and transparent as possible. Before beginning therapy, we will review your insurance benefits, including your deductible, copay or coinsurance, and any other potential out-of-pocket costs. While I can assist with verifying benefits, coverage is ultimately determined by your insurance provider. Payments are collected at the time of service, and I will provide clear information regarding your expected financial responsibility. If you have questions or concerns about costs, I encourage you to reach out so we can discuss your options and determine what works best for you. My goal is to ensure that financial questions do not become a barrier to receiving the support you need.
