Dr. Victoria Benson, DNP, APRN-CNP, PMHNP-BC, is a Board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) with 17 years of experience in health care and 4 years of experience in psychiatry treatments.
Hello! I am an existential therapist and former lawyer. I understand the challenges of working in a high-stress job, managing family obligations, finding time for rest, and coping with anxiety and depression. I specialize in relationship trauma, panic attacks, insomnia, post-divorce, IVF difficulty, climate/political anxiety, and work-related performance issues.
I offer individual therapy for adults and teenagers! I specialize in neurodevelopmental conditions (like autism, ADHD, learning disabilities), and executive functioning skills- focusing, managing emotions, problem solving, and more. I also love working with general mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, existential crises, and life transitions!
I have ten years of experience in mental healthcare, and have an M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Seattle University.

I’ve spent 10 years working with teens and families, and I care deeply about helping people feel understood. I create a space where you can be yourself and feel a sense of belonging, without judgment. I value both family connection and your privacy. Most of all, I believe real change starts with a genuine, comfortable relationship.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, and I'm deeply passionate about supporting women through life’s major transitions- especially perimenopause and menopause.
Perimenopause is a common experience, yet so many women feel entirely unprepared for how disruptive symptoms such as mood shifts, brain fog and insomnia can be. Infertility, post-partum adjustments and parenting can also present unique challenges. My goal is to help you move through these transitions with growth, empowerment and vibrancy.

I take a personalized, collaborative approach to treatment and work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, mood disorders, OCD, PMDD, and ADHD, including non-stimulant treatment options. My goal is to help you feel more like yourself again while finding a treatment plan that fits your needs and your life.
I love working with children, parents, and adults! As an early childhood educator, endorsed infant mental health specialist, and mental health therapist, I offer therapy services for children, families, and adults. I provide mental health and development services for infants and early childhood (0-6), children (7-12), parents, perinatal mental health, and adults (18+). With over 8 years of experience, I have worked in various settings, including clinics and schools.
Hi! I'm a doctorally prepared Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife!
I work with individuals across the lifespan experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, burnout, hormone-related mood changes, and major life transitions.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Tacoma
Finding postpartum therapists in Tacoma starts with looking for support that matches your specific needs after birth or during the perinatal period. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, postpartum care, or work with new parents. Some therapists may also list a Perinatal Mental Health Certification, or PMH-C, which can signal added training in this area.
In Tacoma, your options may include therapists with local offices, virtual appointments, or both. For new parents, practical details often matter as much as clinical specialty — including appointment times, scheduling flexibility, and whether a therapist is accepting new patients. Virtual care can make it easier to attend sessions while managing infant care, physical recovery, or changing routines. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each person describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns before you book.
Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage and review available options before booking. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated cost before booking, review therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
