About
The Courage To Heal
Victoria Theodoridis is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Oshawa. Her practice, The Courage To Heal, is built on the line from her site: healing begins with being seen and heard.
Reaching out can feel daunting. Victoria's public about page says her goal is a space where you feel heard, supported, and safe to explore your experiences, without pressure to have everything figured out before you begin. She works with individuals, couples, families, children, and youth.
In-person sessions are in Oshawa at Head Family Counselling, 200 Bond Street West, Suite 206. Virtual counselling is available across Ontario. First contact is often a free 20-minute consultation through Calendly.
Approaches on her site are integrative and trauma-informed: Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), attachment-aware work, and client-centred practice. She holds specialized training in complex trauma (CCPT/CCPT-II), adoption-competent counselling (Adoption Council of Ontario), gaslighting awareness and recovery, narcissistic personality dynamics, non-suicidal self-injury, and child exploitation and law.
The Courage To Heal is not affiliated with the book of the same name. That disclaimer is on her FAQ page.
Victoria writes that therapy is more than talking: it is being truly seen, heard, and supported as you navigate your story. The practice name reflects her belief that reaching out is itself an act of courage.
