Dr. Victoria Sit is a registered Clinical and Rehabilitation psychologist. She obtained her PhD in Clinical and Counselling Psychology at the University of Toronto. She has worked in a variety of inpatient and outpatient hospital settings, as well as in private practice settings. She completed her predoctoral internship at Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences in the Traumatic Stress Clinic and Forensics Program, providing treatment and assessment services to individuals experiencing posttraumatic stress disorder and major mental illnesses. She also has extensive experience working at a multidisciplinary rehabilitation clinic with clients coping with disabilities and/or chronic health conditions as a result of physical and/or psychological injuries.
Dr. Sit has a therapeutic style that is trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and strengths-based, and she strives to create a safe, egalitarian, non-judgmental, and empowering space for clients. She values every person’s right to autonomy and respect, by inviting collaboration and diverse perspectives and experiences into the therapeutic process. She believes it is a privilege to work with clients, and has a genuine commitment to ongoing self-reflection, education, and personal and professional growth. Dr. Sit primarily works from a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy framework, though she often incorporates interventions from other modalities to meet the needs of clients (e.g., Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy skills, mindfulness). She treats a wide range of psychological and emotional concerns, including anxiety and mood concerns, trauma, chronic pain and disability, self-esteem, stress and burnout, relationship difficulties, and life/work transitions.
