About me
I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York with over 8 years of experience working as a therapist and care manager. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, life changes and career challenges. I also helped many young adults with navigating the specific challenges faced when graduating from college, finding a job and navigating the next phase of their lives.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating every one with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, person centered and solution focused modalities. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Victoria Courten. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
So far I've only had two sessions with Victoria and I can already feel the improvement that is being made within myself. She is very receptive and understanding of what I bring to therapy and I feel confident expressing myself with her. She is a great match.

Victoria has been very receptive. I feel like she listens and understands well my concerns. She has been sending me worksheets that I find very helpful. I highly recommend Victoria. Thank you.

Victoria is great at understanding where I am coming from and gives me support where I need it. I feel as if she really understands me when we speak and gives great advice to help me navigate tough situations that I am facing.

I have been working with Victoria Hammer for a month now and she very relatable and understanding. She is always on time to our weekly meets and responds back to my questions I occasionally have during the week. I am realizing that therapy is not an over night miracle and if you go in with that thinking, I believe you will enjoy this experience.

I have had a great experience with Victoria Hammer thus far. She individualizes treatment. The sessions feel personal and the homework she gives me is useful and relevant to my current needs.
