Though this can be unsettling and overwhelming, Victoria holds to the belief that there is always hope! She specializes in treating women and adolescents who are experiencing anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, divorce recovery, and young-adult life and career transitions. She uses her training and experience to help individuals explore their beliefs about God's love, God’s forgiveness, and other important questions in a nonjudgmental environment.
