Victor Venokur, Therapist
Van Venokur is a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey who has been practicing since 2018. Life has recently shown Van that curveballs are bound to happen with no warning whatsoever. COVID-19 was a clear example of that. These past years have shown Van just how quickly life can be derailed and how pivotal it is for mental health professionals like him to exist. Van has spent the last year working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, biomedical issues, their various relationships, traumas from the past and present, family matters, asexuality, sex addiction, and substance use. His primary experience has been with individuals 18 and over. When it comes to Van’s therapeutic practice, he makes use of various approaches such as Motivational Interviewing, Reality/Choice Therapy, Existentialism, and Positive Psychology. Van is always taking the time to learn new methods, as to how to be of better service. It is no secret that sharing emotions, thoughts, and struggles can be a herculean effort. Allow Van the opportunity to meet you halfway and provide that outlet. That third party individual that won’t judge you but will tell you what you need to hear, not what is believed you want to hear. Allow the two of you to go on an adventure together, with you as the storyteller. Outside of work, Van enjoys cooking, baking, reading, playing video games, and building Lego sets.
