Victoria Saali, LCSW

Victoria Saali is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 35 years of experience helping people move forward when old patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving block progress. She offers practical, human-centered therapy that blends an eclectic range of methods within a cognitive-behavioral framework to produce clear, measurable steps toward change.

Her work emphasizes honest, reflective processing together with goal-setting and psychoeducation. She guides clients through exercises and assignments designed to challenge unhelpful habits and to build new ways of managing emotions such as fear and anger. Through this process she helps clients understand core brain-outer brain dynamics and how to respond differently to thoughts and impulses.

Victoria has extensive experience diagnosing and treating anxiety disorders - including PTSD - as well as depression, addictions, and relationship difficulties. Her approach aims to simplify therapy without minimizing its rigor, encouraging self-discovery and practical problem solving so that people can better regulate emotions, solve problems, and act from self-care and compassion toward others.

Working with Victoria is framed as both an opportunity and a privilege. She is available to discuss her counseling approach and to help prospective clients determine whether her style and methods might fit their needs.
