About Victor

Victor Rose, LCSW, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. He speaks plainly and offers a steady, practical presence for people looking to manage strong emotions, addictive behaviors, sleep problems, or parenting strain. Victor is based in New York and brings ten years of clinical experience to his work.

Victor uses a strengths-based, solution-focused outlook that looks for what already works. He often combines that with cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. He also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills when intense emotions and self-management are central concerns.

Sessions begin with what matters most to the person in front of him. He aims to keep each meeting practical by teaching tools, practicing new coping skills, and tracking small changes between sessions. The tone is supportive but direct, with an emphasis on building resilience and problem solving.

Victor has worked with people affected by substance use, survivors of domestic violence, individuals involved in the criminal justice system, and LGBT youth and adults. His past work included anger management, parenting training, relapse prevention, and trauma-focused counseling.

People who choose him can expect clear goals, skills they can use outside sessions, and a focus on strengths. He invites straightforward conversation about struggles and next steps so clients can move toward better day-to-day functioning.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's lead to uncover what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through anger, grief, or decisions without feeling judged.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches people to spot patterns of thinking that contribute to anxiety, depression, or anger. It uses practical exercises and homework to try new behaviors and measure small improvements between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete skills for tolerating distress, managing intense emotions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It can be useful when emotional reactions feel overwhelming or when people want better ways to cope in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is reviewed over time so techniques can be adjusted as the client's needs change.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into a busy week, make it easier to keep regular appointments, and allow for focused skill practice between meetings. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, check-ins, and how to use learned tools in daily life.
