About Victoria
Victoria Naginsky, LMHC, LPCC, is a licensed mental health counselor with nine years of experience practicing in Florida. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, relationship and family conflict, trauma and grief. Victoria also helps with sleep problems, anger, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, and self-esteem issues.
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered approaches to help people name and track difficult feelings. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to address thinking and coping patterns. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and understanding the emotions that shape behavior.
Victoria frequently addresses concerns tied to attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and family-of-origin problems. She supports work on communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, and control struggles. She also works with clients navigating domestic violence, divorce and separation, and substance use difficulties.
Her approach blends listening with direction. She uses motivational interviewing ideas to build readiness for change and straightforward techniques to reduce symptoms. The emphasis is on noticing relationship patterns and practicing different responses, not just talking about them.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and reworking emotional patterns that shape relationships. In practice, this means naming hard-to-identify feelings and mapping how they affect interactions and choices, which can be useful for relationship and attachment-related concerns.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance and supports clients in clarifying their own priorities. It helps people feel understood and decide what changes matter most to them.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It offers concrete techniques to test unhelpful beliefs and build new coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. Victoria will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean combining elements of EFT, CBT, and mindfulness and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
