Victoria Du Barry LPC, LCADC
Therapist + Owner of In-Balance Psychotherapy
Hi, it's nice to meet you!
I'm Victoria
I'm here to provide you with the support and guidance you need as you move towards the change you're looking for.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor, my goal is to assist you in creating long lasting change that adds more brightness to your life and strengthens your connections.
I embrace a collaborative approach, working alongside you to uncover personal barriers, break free from ingrained habits, and equip you with lifelong coping strategies to navigate life's challenges.
My Background:
I received my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Monmouth University and my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Montclair State University.
Prior to working in private practice, I worked closely with individuals in Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), by helping them address substance use issues, manage co-occurring disorders, and build essential coping skills.
I also had the privilege of working in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) centers, where Methadone treatment is often used. Here, I supported individuals on their journey to recovery from opioid addiction, providing counseling and guidance for both addiction and mental health challenges.
Throughout my career, I facilitated numerous support groups and family therapy sessions for adults and teenagers. These settings provided a platform for individuals and their loved ones to share, learn, and heal together.
I have received training in a range of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure Therapy.
I firmly believe that each person is unique, and their therapeutic journey should reflect that individuality. As such, I tailor my approach during therapy to what each person may need, understanding that there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
I'm proud to hold licenses that allow me to work with clients in various states, including New Jersey, Florida, South Carolina, and Vermont.
