Victoria Strauss, LPC, NCC (She/her)

Staff Therapist

Hello, my name is Victoria Strauss. Thanks for taking a moment to read about me! I have experience working with individuals with concerns related to depression, anxiety, OCD, life transitions, family conflict, interpersonal relationships, and past trauma. I take a holistic approach to wellness, and value client collaboration in treatment planning and goal setting.

I practice using evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical and Behavioral Therapy (DBT), depending on each individual’s needs and goals for treatment. I also incorporate self-compassion and mindfulness-based practices into my work with clients.

I graduated in 2020 from Loyola University Chicago where I studied Psychology. In 2022, I graduated from The Family Institute at Northwestern University where I received my Master’s in counseling. I am dedicated to providing an affirmative counseling space, and strive to facilitate a supportive and empathic relationship with my clients.

In my free time, I enjoy being outside, spending time with friends and family, and trying out new skills (most recently crocheting and embroidery). I love watching movies, listening to music, and experimental baking to create the best chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Insurance Accepted: BCBS PPO, Aetna PPO, Sliding Scale when Applicable
