About Victoria
Victoria Burton is a licensed social worker who helps people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, ADHD, and major life changes. She works with individuals who feel stuck by past hurts, relationship strain, or low self-worth. Her manner is practical and warm, aimed at making therapy straightforward and useful from the first session.
Victoria draws on several evidence-based approaches to guide sessions. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to build new coping skills.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify values and take actions that match what matters to them. Attachment-based work informs how she talks about relationship patterns and safety in connection. Sessions often include problem-solving, short practical exercises, and suggested activities between meetings when helpful.
She encourages small steps that add up to real change. Victoria has seven years of clinical experience as an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker in Michigan. That background includes supporting people through grief, trauma, addiction, and mood disorders.
She also addresses concerns such as body image, chronic illness, communication problems, and midlife transitions. Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Clients can expect clear goals, focused skills practice, and a calm space to talk things through.
Resources and homework are offered when they fit a person's goals and routine.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Victoria uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that reflect those values, which can reduce avoidance and build momentum. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and to teach practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right approach is a joint effort. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together they pick strategies and adjust them over time so therapy fits the person’s life and needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video lets you work face to face for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone can be used when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and messaging are useful for short reflections, technique reminders, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to keep therapy part of a busy routine and to use tools between sessions.
