Victoria Haltom, LMSW

Victoria Haltom is a Licensed Master of Social Work (LMSW) in Michigan with 12 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, and other life changes. She also supports people facing parenting strain, career questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related concerns.

Her approach is practical and straightforward. Sessions focus on identifying what causes strong reactions, learning concrete skills to manage those reactions, and trying different ways of responding. She blends methods rather than relying on a single technique. That means clients might practice breathing and relaxation tools, try thought-reframing exercises, and use communication strategies in session.

Victoria uses Attachment-Based work to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Sessions can include mindfulness, breath work, and relaxation practices when useful.

Her background includes outpatient therapy and telecounseling since 2015, and earlier experience providing case management in senior independent living. That mix means she is used to practical problem solving and helping people access resources when life circumstances change.

In sessions she aims to address immediate concerns while building skills that matter day to day. Clients can expect a direct, skill-focused style that emphasizes doing small, manageable things between meetings to reduce reactivity and improve relationships.
