About Victoria

Victoria Burton is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on a broad range of concerns including addiction, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, relationship strain, and parenting challenges.

She helps people facing low self-esteem, grief, bipolar disorder, depression, and the practical stresses of life change. Victoria also works with issues such as body image, chronic illness, communication problems, and substance misuse. Her background includes supporting clients around attachment and abandonment issues.

Victoria uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage symptoms and make changes that fit daily life. Sessions include talking things through, trying small behavior experiments, and setting straightforward goals between meetings. She offers tools and short assignments when those are useful to a person’s situation.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Client-Centered Therapy. These approaches guide conversations about values, thinking patterns, emotional responses, and relationship dynamics.

Victoria welcomes people who want focused help with parenting strain, relationship difficulties, and the ripple effects of trauma or addiction. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online intake flow.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what really matters to them. It often suits people facing life changes, grief, mood concerns, or chronic difficulty acting on values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical strategies to test unhelpful thinking and change behaviors. It commonly helps with depression, anxiety, and patterns that keep people stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Victoria will discuss different methods with each person and make decisions together based on goals and what feels useful. Sessions are collaborative and can mix techniques from ACT, CBT, attachment-focused work, and motivational interviewing as needed.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or remove the need to travel. Many people find that meeting remotely lets them connect with a licensed professional while juggling parenting, work, and other responsibilities.
