Vicky is great! I love her flexibility in listening to what is going in with me this week but also circles back to tipics I have expressed interest in coming back to. She is great about sending me resources to refer to and I just love having someone to talk through my issues with me in weekly basis. Thanks Vicky!

More about Victoria
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
Hi, I'm Vicky! I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania with 10 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, anger management issues, and other mood management issues. I have experience working with a variety of individuals, including children, adolescents, and adults, clients with special needs, and clients from many different cultural backgrounds.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, solution-focused, and dialectical-behavioral therapy techniques. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you and will help you every step of the way.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She’s extremely caring and takes my feelings into consideration. Even if I’m doing well she still trying to make sure I’m okay on every front.
She’s very kind and supportive. Always response in a timely manner.
Victoria has been so helpful and she’s so caring. She’s understand how to validate our emotions and struggles we go through. She definitely helps in response and feedback. I recommend having her as your therapist because she’s a very good listener and helpful understands what we are going through! I hope to reconnect with her in the future
I highly recommend Victoria as a counselor. With her help, I'm no longer depressed and I'm working out my anger issues.
I've had several breakthroughs in my therapy with her. I feel like I've made some definite progress and I'm glad to have her as my therapist.
Victoria is a wonderful counselor! She takes the time to understand and validate the emotions and struggles I feel and offers an array of options to help myself work through some of the anxieties and tough moments I have faced.
Vicky has been such a great help during my time using this service. I have to discontinue for financial reasons but I hope to reconnect with her when things are back in place.
Victoria is an excellent counselor. She really listens to what your concerns are and is very helpful in her responses and feedback.
Victoria Torres has already helped my focus and process some of my issues in a short time. I have confidence that she will continue to help me foster positive change in my outlook on life.
It's been helpful to share thoughts to a neutral person to which I do not have to be nervous or think I am being judged when sharing something personal.
Has been extremely helpful in listening and being my therapist. I would say Victoria Torres knows exactly how to tackle the issues I’m going through and also how to point out when I am wrong or could be. I couldn’t recommend Victoria more as therapist, she has been genuinely wonderful and great.
