Meet Victoria
My name is Victoria Igbene, a Licensed Social Worker in Washington, DC, and Maryland. I received a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland (Baltimore).
My Story
As a licensed practitioner (therapist) I pride myself on providing a warm, safe, and non-
judgmental environment, which fosters a healthy therapeutic relationship, which allows you
the space to address your experiences that are impacting your life’s journey, gain new skills,
techniques, and perspectives, in coping with them. These experiences impact your journey
could be but are not limited to are grief, life transitions, changes in relationships with others,
unhealed pain, domestic violence (past and current), family challenges, and mental health.
As an experienced licensed practitioner (therapist) for several years, I am highly skilled in
providing Trauma-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral
Therapy to individuals (adults and children) experiencing trauma (complex), mental health
(chronic), dysregulating behaviors, and substance use. I also provide Grief and Loss Therapy.
As your therapist, you will receive quality therapy through evidenced practices with culturally
sensitive perspectives. This will allow you to address your goals, decrease or eliminate negative
symptoms, and strengthen your coping skills. Furthermore, throughout the therapeutic
relationship, you will increase your self-awareness that will strengthen your power to navigate
through future life stressors.
