About Victor
He draws on a strengths-based, solution-focused mindset. That means sessions emphasize a person’s existing resources and small steps toward change. Victor pairs that with cognitive behavioral ideas to help address unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for mood and anxiety problems.
Victor has about 10 years of experience working in settings that included child welfare, criminal justice, and services for unstably housed people. That background shaped his focus on relapse prevention, anger management, and repairing family relationships. He also has experience helping people affected by domestic violence and HIV/AIDS concerns.
In a session he prioritizes the issues you bring and works toward concrete tools you can use between meetings. He describes the work as collaborative: you set goals and he helps map steps to reach them. Many people find this practical framing useful when life feels overwhelming.
Victor uses approaches like Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy to fit individual needs. If you want to explore coping strategies or manage a specific problem, he focuses on what will work for you.

How Victor’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It creates space to tell your story and set goals at your own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for regulating strong emotions and improving how you handle tense moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Victor will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest options to try. Together you can adjust the focus over time if one method fits better than another.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know what options are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins on a work break, or let someone attend without needing to be on camera. Licensed professionals often adapt techniques like CBT exercises or DBT skills practice to work well in remote sessions, focusing on tools you can use between meetings.
