About
Using the Gottman Method, along with CBT and DBT strategies, I help couples slow down conflict, improve communication, rebuild emotional safety, and reconnect. I frequently work with couples experiencing escalating criticism or defensiveness, repeated unresolved arguments, pursuit-withdraw patterns, difficulty repairing after conflict, and emotional distance.
Many couples I work with are high-functioning and successful in their careers or personal lives, yet feel stuck in painful relationship patterns. Therapy provides a focused, supportive space to understand your cycle, practice practical skills, and create meaningful change that lasts.
Victoria earned her MSc in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University and a Master of Divinity from Southern Seminary, providing a broad foundation in clinical and relational care. She completed her undergraduate studies in Psychology at Middlesex University in Dubai, U.A.E. Victoria has completed intensive training in DBT, including the Prolonged Exposure Protocol for PTSD, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Levels 1–3 training with the Gottman Institute.
If you’re tired of having the same arguments and ready to feel more connected, reach out to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward changing your relationship.
