As a certified EMDR psychotherapist and social worker, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that first step! I’ve been practicing for 15 years as a social worker, but in the last decade, I have shifted my main focus to clients aged 18 and up who are struggling with anxiety and depression.

Dr. Victoria Cefaratti-Miller

Psychologist

Virtual • New Jersey


Dr. Victoria Cefaratti-Miller, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience helping adults manage anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. I specialize in providing compassionate, evidence-based psychotherapy to individuals seeking to improve their emotional well-being, understand themselves better, and develop practical strategies for navigating life's challenges.


My clinical experience includes treating anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), adjustment difficulties, emotional regulation challenges, and concerns related to self-esteem and relationships. I also have extensive experience working with adults with ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disabilities, and other neurodevelopmental conditions, including providing comprehensive psychological evaluations and diagnostic assessments.


My therapeutic approach is supportive, collaborative, and individualized. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive psychotherapy, and behavioral interventions to help patients recognize unhelpful thought patterns, manage difficult emotions, reduce stress, and develop effective coping skills. I believe successful therapy combines empathy and understanding with practical strategies that help create meaningful, lasting change.

Throughout my career, I have worked in private practice, hospitals, educational settings, and multidisciplinary healthcare environments. My experience includes helping individuals cope with chronic pain, medical conditions, disability-related concerns, family challenges, and significant life changes. I also have specialized experience conducting adult ADHD and autism evaluations.

Great to meet you!

Therapy should be a place where you don't have to censor yourself or worry about being judged. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, intimacy and sexual concerns, identity, self-esteem, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, affirming, sex-positive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy should feel collaborative rather than clinical or intimidating. I especially enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, recognize patterns that are no longer serving them, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change in their lives.
