About Vicki
Vicki Mansure is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who focuses on practical, compassionate therapy. She draws on more than 21 years of experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, with an emphasis on building trust and a comfortable working relationship.
Vicki uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and client-centered techniques to address unhelpful thinking and rebuild coping skills.
Background and approach
She listens first, then helps clients identify patterns that keep problems happening. Sessions are paced to the person, and goals are set together so progress feels meaningful. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including relationship and family stresses, parenting pressures, grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, and anger.
She also addresses more specific areas like attachment difficulties, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and panic attacks. Vicki aims to make therapy practical and relevant to everyday life. Vicki combines insight-oriented conversation with concrete tools such as cognitive restructuring and solution-focused planning.
She helps people notice automatic thoughts, test them, and try new behaviors between sessions. Over time clients build skills for managing emotions, coping with change, and improving relationships. People who want a calm, steady therapeutic partner will find her approach direct but warm.
She emphasizes listening, clear goals, and real-world strategies that fit each person’s situation.
Approaches and online therapy options
Vicki uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in ways that are easy to understand. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and test automatic thoughts and then try new, more helpful behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, validation, and building a trusting relationship so people can explore difficult feelings and decide what matters to them.Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist works with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time as needs change and different tools become more useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make scheduling more flexible. These options let people balance work, family, and therapy without extra travel. They also allow practical follow-up between sessions, like trying a new skill and reporting back during a message or chat.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
