About Victoria (Tori) VanBuren

I’m Victoria (Tori) VanBuren, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Behavioral Specialist.

Creating a Safe Space

As a clinician, I aim to hold a safe, non-judgmental space to help others thrive and make meaningful changes. I am dedicated to being authentic, open-minded, empathetic, competent, and resourceful for my clients.

Specialties and Techniques

My therapeutic style is eclectic and personally tailored to each individual. A great deal of my training is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Also, I utilize techniques from a variety of other therapeutic modalities, including (but not limited to) Trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Attachment Theory, Experiential therapies, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and Creative therapies (art, music, literature, forest, etc.).

My Experience

My experience includes being in the mental health field since 2010 and being an outpatient counselor since 2016. Staying up to date on the latest evidence-based research to ensure I use the most effective interventions is something I enjoy. As a result, I can help assist with various mental health concerns, such as:

Anxiety and overwhelm

Depression, sadness, and moving through changes
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and complex (c-PTSD)
Bipolar disorder and other emotional regulation difficulties
Grief/loss bereavement
Existential exploration, purpose, and meaning
Relationship conflicts and building healthy relationships
Self-esteem, self-love, resilience building, and empowerment
Codependency, boundaries, and difficulties saying “no.”
Stress management, mindfulness, and relaxation techniques
Psychoeducation and skill building

About Me

In my free time, I enjoy reading, learning new things, listening to podcasts, being in nature, hiking, gardening, music, art, and yoga. You may find me integrating nutritional psychology, eastern philosophy, holistic health, and herbal remedies. I adore the time I get to spend with loved ones and going on adventures. Let’s get started on this journey together if we may be a good fit!
