About Vicki
Her sessions focus on practical, individualized plans rather than one-size-fits-all solutions, and she partners with clients to shape conversations and treatment steps that feel relevant and manageable. Vicki also acknowledges how much courage it takes to begin therapy and recognizes the step of reaching out as meaningful in itself. She aims to support clients through that early process and beyond, offering steady guidance as they work toward clearer coping and renewed direction.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, and everyday challenges. It often involves setting specific goals and practicing techniques between sessions to build lasting change. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and emotions, which can support people struggling with anxiety, chronic stress, or difficulties regulating mood by strengthening attention and calm.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, nonjudgmental method that helps people clarify their own reasons for change and tap into personal motivation, which can be helpful for coaching, addictions, or making lifestyle shifts. Vicki works with clients to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs - the selection of methods is a collaborative process guided by the client's goals, preferences, and life situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing therapy to fit more easily into varied schedules and locations. Licensed professionals can adapt their methods to these formats so that clients can receive consistent therapeutic support without the need for in-person visits.
