Victoria, affectionately known as Tori, is a dedicated Clinical Social Worker/Therapist (LCSW) specializing in assisting teens and adults navigate the complexities of life. Her practice focuses on women's issues and anxiety, particularly affirming those who identify as highly sensitive persons (HSP).

Through her warm and empathetic approach, Tori encourages clients to view their emotions as meaningful signals rather than measures of success or failure. With Tori's support, clients discover that they possess unique insights and the potential to initiate significant change in their lives and communities. Whether tackling trauma, chronic pain, or life transitions, clients will find a valuable ally in Tori, who is committed to helping them uncover their strength and resilience.
