About Victoria

Victoria Bartholomew is a licensed clinical social worker with six years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She offers straightforward guidance for common concerns like relationship strain, parenting challenges, and family conflict. Her approach is practical and compassionate for people who want clear steps forward.

Victoria focuses on helping clients identify patterns that cause stress and on building new skills to respond differently. She uses strategies that break problems into manageable steps so progress feels achievable.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to be a place to talk openly and sort through what matters most. She also addresses trauma and abuse with attention to safety and pacing. When appropriate, she uses trauma-focused tools alongside skills for emotion regulation.

Victoria helps people work through difficult memories while strengthening coping skills for day-to-day life. In conversations about parenting and blended family issues she helps parents and caregivers find strategies that fit their routines. Topics can include setting boundaries, handling control struggles, and navigating separation or divorce transitions.

Sessions often focus on small changes that make daily life smoother. Victoria integrates techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. This mix lets her tailor sessions to each person’s goals and needs.

She works with people who want practical tools and steady support as they make changes.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Victoria commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address current problems and build practical skills. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and depression. DBT offers concrete emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that are useful for intense feelings and relationship stress.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and to set doable goals. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for fuller conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text sessions are helpful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between meetings, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting schedules, or other commitments.
